The service was launched on June 6, 2025. Its use is free, and citizens can set or cancel the ban at any time.
The restriction can be arranged through the CIAC mobile application, the personal account on the credit bureau's official website, the center's call center, the Unified Interactive Public Services Portal, or Public Service Centers.
