How to get credit holidays at OTP in 2024?

What are credit holidays in 2024?

A credit holiday is a payment deferral ranging from one to six months. This measure is only available to those in need—specifically, those whose income has dropped by more than 30% or who have faced an emergency situation.

Under what conditions are credit holidays provided in 2024?

A borrower can obtain a credit holiday under Federal Law No. 353-FZ only if a number of conditions are met:

1. If you have experienced one of the following situations and can provide documentary proof:

   — Your official taxable income for the two months prior to applying for the credit holiday decreased by more than 30% compared to your average monthly income over the preceding 12 months.

   — You reside in living quarters located in an emergency zone, resulting in the loss of property and a deterioration of your living conditions.

2. You have not previously been granted a credit holiday for this loan in accordance with Federal Law No. 106-FZ of 03.04.2020.
3. You have not previously been granted a credit holiday for this loan and the same life situation in accordance with Article 6.1-2 of Federal Law No. 353-FZ of 21.12.2013.

5. There is no effective judicial act in force for this loan, and no enforcement measures are being applied.
