Amendments to Russian consumer protection law require
installation of local software on digital devices to be sold in
Russia after July 2020. The Russian government will publish lists
of the digital devices covered by the new requirements and local
software that is approved by the government. Experts believe that
computers, smartphones and smart TVs will likely be named among
such digital devices.
The amendments were signed into law on December 2, 2019, and
will come into force on July 1, 2020.
All companies selling any digital devices in Russia would be
well advised to keep a close watch on further developments in this
area.
