KOROSTELEV & PARTNERS
Currency Control and Cross-Border Payments
Plan lawful settlements, distributions and financing across borders.
We advise on foreign exchange controls, cross-border loans, dividends, proceeds from asset sales and special account requirements. We assess whether a permission is needed and prepare supporting documents for the bank and the relevant authority.
Settlement planning may include national currencies, subject to applicable restrictions, bank acceptance and documented commercial purposes. We check both the legal route and the requirements of the banks involved.

Frequently asked questions
When should we involve legal counsel?
Before signing binding terms or transferring funds. Early review identifies ownership, approval, tax and payment issues that may change the structure.
What information should we provide first?
Please share a short description of the objective, the parties and ownership chain, the assets involved and the intended timetable. Sensitive documents can follow after conflict checks and confidentiality arrangements.
Can you work with our advisers abroad?
Yes. We coordinate the Russian workstream with your legal, tax and financial advisers and agree responsibilities at the start.
