In Ukraine, starting today, they will start fines for lack of a mask in public places. This is what the law provides, which came into effect today.

Reported by RBC-Ukraine.

Yesterday it was published in the publication “Voice of Ukraine” and took effect the day after its publication.

The law states that they will be fined for staying in public buildings, structures, public transport during quarantine without wearing personal protective equipment, including respirators or protective masks that cover the nose and mouth, including those made by ourselves.

The size of the fine will be from ten to fifteen minimum non-taxable income of citizens (170-255 hryvnia).

We will recall, earlier, the President of Ukraine, Volodymyr Zelensky, signed a law on fines for the lack of a mask in public places and transport.

The Minister of Justice, Denis Malyuska, clarified that with the adoption of the new law on fines for violating quarantine, they will not be penalized for the absence of a mask on the street.

As RBC-Ukraine wrote, a poll by the sociological group “Rating” showed that 75% of Ukrainians support the introduction of fines for staying in public places and transporting without masks.
