Due to the bank that arranges for Department for Work and Pensions payments to be paid in Yemeni Rial (YER) withdrawing its services, we are currently unable to process payments through the Yemeni banking system.

We are working with all concerned to try and resolve this issue as soon as possible.

People who are affected should contact the International Pension Centre.
