The government extended the ban on including tips in the bill without the consent of restaurant and cafe guests. TASS reports this with reference to the document. The ban was supposed to expire on January 1, 2027, but has now been extended until September 1, 2027. The State Duma informed the agency that such a system encourages the waiter to serve the visitor better. Additionally, if tips are automatically included in the bill, they may not reach the employee.
