  • ensure that bottles and packages are labeled correctly;

The holiday ban is not valid everywhere, but only in some regions that have established it. New Year is not included. Legislators of regions, territories and republics have the right to establish additional alcohol-free days. For example, in Dagestan, alcohol is not sold during the month of Ramadan, and in Perm - on Victory Day.

Regions may also extend the night-time trading ban interval. In Tomsk, Kaluga, and Kaliningrad regions, neither wine nor champagne can be purchased after 10 p.m. In St. Petersburg, alcohol sales are only possible from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.
