Mastercard will no longer be going ahead with its planned changes to Final Authorization Submission rules in the Europe region*.

Changes to the rules were due to come into force on May 22, 2024, but this will no longer be going ahead. The clearing record for each transaction authorized as a final authorization can continue to be submitted up to seven calendar days after the authorization approval date in line with the current rules.

Please disregard our previous notifications.

*Excluding: Armenia, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, Moldova, Russian Federation, Tajikistan, Turkey, Turkmenistan, Ukraine and Uzbekistan.
