Russia to Change Process for Tobacco Manufacturer's Special Identification in 2024
Russia to change tobacco production labeling process starting July 1, 2024, eliminating need for bank guarantees or cash deposits.

According to a report from Interfax on June 17th, the official legal information website of Russia has announced that starting from July 1, 2024, Russia will change the process for tobacco manufacturers to obtain special markings.

 

On June 15th, the Russian government signed a relevant decree and published it on the official legal information portal website. This decree amends the government resolution dated January 26, 2010.

 

According to the new regulations, manufacturers no longer need to provide a bank guarantee or cash deposit when purchasing specialized labels.

 

Starting from June 1, 2024, Russia has implemented a new law introducing digital tax stamps, which are special identifiers used for tracking and control, and integrating them into the product labeling system.
