The procedure for the creation and operation of an electronic travel voucher has been approved

The Russian government has established procedures for the creation and operation of a unified information system for electronic travel vouchers. The relevant documents have been published on the agency's website.

 

 

Thus, Resolution No. 747 established the procedure for creation and the functioning of the electronic travel voucher system, its structure, the conditions for providing the information contained therein, and the functions of the system operator.

The information contained in the electronic travel voucher system will be provided free of charge. To obtain it, tourists will be required to complete an online authentication process.

Resolution No. 748, in turn, established requirements for the use of electronic documents by tour operators, travel agents, tourists, and other customers when selling tourism products. It defines the information that tourists may transmit to a tour operator or travel agent electronically when concluding an agreement for the sale of a tourism product electronically, as well as the methods for transmitting this information.

Furthermore, a procedure has been established for the electronic exchange of information between tour operators, travel agents, tourists, and other customers when selling tourism products. This information exchange will be conducted through the official website of the tour operator or travel agent.

It's worth noting that the list of data the system will contain is quite extensive. It includes full details of the tour operator and travel agent, trip start and end dates, departure and arrival countries with specific locations, names of receiving parties, and transportation details—more than 30 items in total. However, as experts point out, the decree does not specify which fields will ultimately be mandatory.
