If the institution with which you have made your deposit is a branch of a credit institution based in another EU country, the deposit is covered by the guarantee scheme of the country in which the institution is situated, and its limit is of EUR 100 000.

These institutions are required to provide the public, in an easily understandable manner, with all the essential information regarding the guarantee schemes which cover the deposits they receive, including the respective identification and provisions, as well as the respective amounts, coverage and maximum repayment period. If deposits are excluded from the guarantee, the institutions must inform their depositors accordingly.

In the case of an institution based in a country which, although a member of the EU, is not a member of the euro area (Czechia, Denmark, Hungary, Poland, Romania and Sweden), the bank customer should bear in mind that the amount can be paid in the currency of the country of origin.
