New rules are about to come into force legally requiring citizens to wear face masks on public transport or closed spaces.
According to the changes into law, a fine of 50 GEL can be imposed on those who fail to wear a mask on public transport, taxes or closed spaces. The owner of the closed space will face a fine of 500 GEL for letting a person in a building without a face mask.
The amendments also apply to other violations of the rules of isolation and quarantine, for which a natural person will be fined GEL 2,000 and a legal entity 10,000 GEL.
