20 ноября 2018

Today, new rules for trade and catering have been published. According to the Ministry of Antimonopoly Regulation and Trade, they correspond to the Decree Nr. 7 On the Development of Entrepreneurship and the Decree Nr. 345 On the Development of Rural Business. Most importantly, the list of rules has been reduced by 20 percent, and this is another step towards business liberalization. For example, a shop may not agree with the local administration the working hours during the daytime. Restaurateurs can set the rules for behavior in their establishments, post them on the website or on the stands in the lobby.

From February 21, stores will be obliged to inform buyers of the cost of products per kilogram and liter. For violation of the rules approved by the Council of Ministers the store will have to pay a fine of up to 10 basic units.
