To allow reporting institutions some time to upgrade their systems, older versions TLS 1.0 & 1.1 will be supported until 12 February 2022. After February 12th only TLS 1.2 will be supported.

If you have any questions regarding the above please contact OSCA queries at osca.queries@bankofengland.co.uk.
