Russia offered to create a market record

The latest version of the bill establishes that the Government will launch a record of “intermediate digital platforms”: markets. It will include sites that will comply with the criteria according to the audit indicators. The Government will determine them separately.

The criteria will help exclude information resources from the list, as well as sites that sell goods and services of their own brands, sites where there is no commercial orientation, social networks and messengers, explained the interlocutor of the publication.

The project needs more refinement, said a Wildberries representative to Kommersant. According to him, the document can limit the capabilities of sellers to promote goods, which will be reduced. Great disproportionate rapes of fines are also involved, the company emphasized. Now the bill explains that markets can receive a fine of up to 1 million rubles.

• The development of a single bill for all digital platforms at the end of September was announced by the head of the Ministry of Eveline Maxim Reschetnikov. It was assumed that it would regulate the activities of intermediate online platforms, and not only markets, but also taxi aggregators, food delivery services and other sites. In February, the Ministry ended the bill, eliminating some controversial requirements of it. For example, the platforms were exempt from the obligation to track the “costume” of employees under self -employed.
