This is in adherence to the directive issued by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN).

The apex bank also said that authorised dealer banks should inform their customers of the development for compliance.

FSDH Merchant Bank Limited sent a notice to its customers on Tuesday, following the announcement by the CBN.

“Dear valued customer, we wish to bring to your notice that CBN has deployed the automated Forms A & NCX for invisible and non-commercial export transactions (in addition to commercial export already on the platform) on the TRMS platform,” the statement reads.

“Hence, it has become imperative for every individual (Current and Potential customers for invisible transactions e.g., for tuition fee, upkeep, medical fee, BTA/PTA, subscription, professional exams/certification fee, etc.) to immediately sign up on the TRMS platform preparatory to cut over to the new system by the CBN.”

“It has therefore become imperative for every individual (Current and potential customers for invisible transactions such as tuition fee, upkeep, medical fee, personal travel allowance (PTA) business travel allowance (BTA), subscription, professional exams, and certification fee and other related requests) to immediately sign up on the Trade Monitoring System (TRMS) platform preparatory to cut over to the new system by the Central Bank of Nigeria (CBN),” it added.
