According to RIA Novosti, despite this, the already issued paper passports will continue to operate throughout the country.
It is noted that the mandatory exchange of paper TCP for an electronic passport is not provided.
In August, Russian President Vladimir Putin signed a law to improve transport security in the country.
It was noted that the law also obliges carriers to provide access to data from technical means to units of the FSB, the Ministry of Internal Affairs and the Rostransnadzor. Also, transport infrastructure entities will be required to develop and approve transport safety passports
