Payment shall be made to each staff member at the place and in the currency of the country where he carries out his duty or, at the request of the staff member, in euros in a bank within the Union.\n2. Under the conditions laid down in rules fixed by the AACC, by common consent after consulting the Staff Committee, staff members may apply for special regular transfer of part of their remuneration.\nUnder the first sentence of this paragraph the following may be transferred, separately or in combination:\n(a) for children attending an education establishment in another Member State, a maximum amount per dependent child equal to the amount of the education allowance actually received for that child;\n(b) on production of valid supporting documents, regular payments to all other persons residing in the relevant Member State to whom the staff member provides evidence of having an obligation by virtue of a decision of the courts or the competent administrative authority.\nThe transfers referred to in point (b) may not exceed 5 % of the staff member's basic salary.\n3. The transfers provided for in paragraph 2 of this Article shall be made, in the currency of the relevant Member State, at the same exchange rate as those referred to in the second paragraph of Article 63 of the EU Staff Regulations. The amounts transferred shall be multiplied by a coefficient representing the difference between the correction coefficient for the country to which the transfer is made as defined in point (b) of Article 3(5) of Annex XI to the EU Staff Regulations and the correction coefficient applied to the remuneration of the staff member as referred to in point (a) of Article 3(5) of Annex XI to the EU Staff Regulations.\n4. Apart from the transfers referred to in paragraphs 1 to 3, a staff member may request a regular transfer to another Member State in local currency at the monthly exchange rate, without application of any coefficient. This transfer may not exceed 25 % of the staff member's basic salary.",
