BANGKOK -- Myanmar has exempted foreign investments and businesses operating in economic zones from a rule requiring the conversion of foreign currencies into kyat, following international pushback.
On the exemption list are foreign direct investment projects approved by the Myanmar Investment Commission, according to a notice dated Wednesday from the Central Bank of Myanmar. The exemption also covers domestic and foreign businesses in special economic zones. Embassy and United Nations personnel are exempt as well.
