Russian vodka in exchange for passport
The new rules for selling strong alcohol beverages will come in effect in Russia on June 21. In accordance with the new law, a customer, who purchases strong alcohol beverages, will have to show his or her ID during the purchase. Experts believe, though, that the new rules are not going to work because they are not good for sellers.
A seller will have to ask for customer's ID when selling a bottle of vodka. If a customer refuses to provide an ID, the seller will have a right not to sell the beverage. Foreign citizens will be able to buy strong drinks in Russia if they present passports of their states.
The list of documents which will be accepted for buying strong drinks at Russian stores has been formed on the base of photo+birth date principle. The list contains 13 documents in total.
