A free service for checking signs for compliance with new legal requirements has been launched in Moscow. This was reported by the Moscow Department of Economic Policy and Development.

Changes came into force on March 1, 2026, prohibiting the placement of information intended for public viewing in foreign languages without translation. The restrictions apply to signs, pointers, company websites and catalogs. The service is an interactive self-assessment tool that allows you to assess the correctness of information design.

The service is free and aimed at a wide audience of entrepreneurs working in the field of trade and services.
