RIGA, Sept. 20 (Xinhua) -- Aiming to fight the shadow economy, the Latvian government on Tuesday decided to ban individuals from carrying out cash

part of taxes obtain unfair advantage as compared to honest taxpayers. That is
why the government continues to work on new measures to reduce the shadow
economy in Latvia, the ministry said.
The law also includes a transitional period. The new provision will apply to cash transactions in the said amount settled after Jan. 1, 2018, if such
transactions are stipulated in contracts signed before Jan. 1, 2017.
The limitation of cash transactions to 7,200 euros already applies to companies and legal entities, but not to private individuals. Enditem
