The State Duma adopted in the first reading a bill on the transfer of labeling of imported alcoholic beverages to the territory of the Russian Federation from March 1, 2026. This is evidenced by the materials posted in the Legislative Support System.

The bill was introduced by the Government of the Russian Federation and is formalized in the form of amendments to the law "On state regulation of production and turnover of ethyl alcohol, alcoholic and alcohol-containing products and on restriction of consumption (drinking) of alcoholic products".

Currently, FSM must be applied to alcoholic beverages imported into the Russian Federation before they are shipped to Russia. Labeling of imported alcohol in Russian warehouses is possible only as part of an experiment in a number of regions of the Russian Federation.
