Payment processing during holidays

We would like to ask our customers to pay extra attention to payment deadlines and transaction times when making transfers during the holiday season.

During public holidays, from December 24 to 26, no processing of payments will take place in Latvia, Finland, or the rest of Europe. The value dates of all outgoing payments will be postponed correspondingly.

Payments entered on December 23 will be sent out to the recipient’s bank as follows:
