About the mask mandates
Wearing masks and gloves became mandatory in stores and on transport, in businesses and public places in the capital on May 12, 2020. On July 30, 2021, Moscow Mayor Sergey Sobyanin said that wearing gloves in transport and public places in Moscow would no longer be mandatory, but masks were still required.
The fine for violating mask mandates for individuals in Moscow enterprises, which include stores and shopping centres, is 4,000 rubles (almost $36). Stores are obliged to refuse to serve customers without personal protective equipment. If customers refuse to put them on or leave the store, employees have the right to call the police. The penalty for not wearing masks on public transport in the capital is 5,000 rubles (almost $45). Since October 16, 2020, Russia’s Federal Service for Surveillance on Consumer Rights Protection and Human Wellbeing forbade entry to passengers on Moscow public transport without personal protective equipment, even if they had already paid for the ride.
