The Russian government has extended measures to support tour operators in the field of outbound tourism for 2025.

According to the current legislation, tour operators are required to make annual contributions to the reserve fund of the Travel Assistance association. The amount of contributions varies from 50 to 500 thousand rubles and depends on the number of tourists served in the previous year.

In the period from 2020 to 2024, due to the coronavirus pandemic and subsequent sanctions pressure, the government introduced a benefit by setting the amount of contributions at 1 ruble. This support measure has been extended for 2025.

This decision is aimed at supporting the tourism industry in the face of current restrictions and unfriendly actions by foreign countries, while it will not affect the rights of tourists.
