JCB Statement on Suspension of Russian Operations

In light of the sanctions in response to Russia's invasion of Ukraine, we have been implementing the measures in accordance with laws, regulations and contracts.
In view of the difficulties we are currently witnessing and the unforeseen circumstances in the region, we have now decided to suspend the JCB network operations in the Russian Federation on March 14, 2022.
With this action, JCB cards issued in Russia will no longer be supported outside the country, and any JCB cards issued outside of Russia will no longer be supported within the Russian Federation.
We regret any inconvenience this may cause to our customers and partners.
Together with the global community, we hope that peace and stability will be restored in Ukraine soon.
