Circular No. (05/2026)
To all banks operating in Palestine
Date: Monday, January 12, 2026

Subject: Disbursement of a portion of public sector employee salaries

Given that the Ministry of Finance has disbursed 60% of the public sector employee salaries for October 2025, and out of the Palestine Monetary Authority's keenness to regulate the process of repaying bank facilities granted to public sector employees, banks are requested to do the following:

1. The deduction rate shall not exceed 25% of the transferred payment in the payroll statement for public sector employees, for employees whose accounts received a portion of their salary.
2. As for employees whose accounts received a full salary, the current instructions in this regard shall apply.
