LB 201 Legislature · 109th Legislature (2025-2026)

Provide for a fee under Nebraska Money Transmitters Act

LB 201 amends Nebraska's Money Transmitters Act to require money transmitters (like Western Union or digital payment services) to collect a fee for each transaction sent outside the U.S. The fee is either 10% of the transaction value or $10,000, whichever is lower. Transmitters must pay this fee quarterly to the Nebraska Department of Banking by the 15th of the following month. This bill directly affects businesses licensed to send money internationally within Nebraska and becomes effective January 1, 2026.
