Agencies with less than 1,000 transactions per quarter will not be assessed transaction fees. A separate debit representing this fee will be drawn against the applicable ARC-designated bank accounts on or after July 20, 2023. Only one draft will be issued for consolidated drafting agencies.
If you have not done so already, every agency must contact your bank representative and add ARC’s Company ID 9521367276.

ARC has received reports of a fraudulent email solicitation scheme. We’re alerting you about requests for assistance with corporate travel from an alleged oil and gas company whose name does not show up in a Google search but has a similar spelling to an actual company. Please be cautious when handling such requests since they typically involve inter-Africa travel bookings and inquiries for future Africa-to-Europe routes. Prioritize verifying unfamiliar inquiries to prevent potential fraud.
Please review the example of a fraudulent email below to familiarize yourself with typical signs of suspicious requests:
-
Grammar and spelling errors
-
Urgency in the request
-
Unusual or questionable routings
-
Statements demanding immediate payment
-
Promises for future business
