In today’s global economy, the seamless movement of funds across borders is critical for businesses engaged in international trade and investment. However, with increasing scrutiny from central banks aimed at maintaining currency stability and preventing capital outflows, exchange control compliance has become a vital element of cross-border transactions.

We provide legal advice and strategic guidance on all exchange control regulations in Lesotho. We assist both local and international clients in navigating the legal and regulatory framework governing foreign currency transactions and cross-border capital flows.

Our services include:

• Advising on exchange control implications related to finance agreements, share purchase agreements, and repatriation of dividends or profits

• Guiding multinational and national companies, as well as international organisations, on the regulatory approvals required for foreign investments and cross-border funding

• Assisting clients in cases where authorised dealers have rejected exchange control applications, by engaging with the Central Bank of Lesotho or relevant authorities

• Structuring cross-border payments in a compliant, tax-efficient, and economically viable manner

With deep experience in Lesotho’s exchange control regime, the team at Mayet & Associates ensures that your business remains compliant while maximising efficiency in international financial operations.
