The Office for Foreign Assets Control (OFAC, a division of the US Treasury Department) has allowed banks in Kazakhstan to accept Mir cards. This was reported by the press service of the Agency for Regulation and Development of the Financial Market of Kazakhstan.
The US Department clarified that it does not object to the use of bank cards of the Mir system by individuals, namely, those who migrated from Russia to Kazakhstan to carry out transactions and ensure their livelihoods.

At the same time, the operation with the Mir card is excluded from control in order not to release their use to bypass anti-Russian fees.
The decision to work with Mir cards will be made by Kazakh banks independently. [Интерфакс]
