DescriptionThe president signed a law imposing substantial fines for logging in via foreign services on the Russian internet. The ban technically existed before, but now companies face fines of up to ₽700,000 under the new Article 13.55 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation for having functional “Sign in with Google” or “Apple ID” buttons. Experts note that Roskomnadzor is capable of detecting such violations automatically using special scanning bots. Large businesses are already removing these features, but hundreds of EdTech platforms, online stores, and services risk not making it in time before inspections begin. All eyes are on whether the agency will announce the first official fines against major domestic platforms in the second half of August.
ConditionsYes: if, between July 15 and August 31, 2026, the Federal Service for Supervision of Communications, Information Technology, and Mass Media (Roskomnadzor) officially issues a ruling imposing a fine under Art. 13.55 of the Code of Administrative Offenses of the Russian Federation against at least one major Russian internet platform (ranked among the top 100 in terms of traffic on the Russian internet).
No: if, during the specified period, Roskomnadzor does not publish data on fines imposed on major platforms for foreign authorization.
