Will a bill banning the sale of iPhones in Russia be introduced in the State Duma by the end of July?
Volume~$159
YES chance
DescriptionThe Ministry of Digital Development’s appeal to the Federal Antimonopoly Service (FAS) regarding Apple’s refusal to integrate the RuStore app store has given lawmakers new impetus. The State Duma’s Committee on Information Policy has repeatedly emphasized that the strictest possible measures—including restrictions on the sale of their products—should be applied against companies that infringe on the rights of Russian developers and users. Although a complete ban on shipments could hurt retailers, submitting the draft bill for consideration appears to be a realistic step toward increasing pressure on the American corporation. The focus now is on whether such an initiative will be registered in the Legislative Activity Support System (SOZD) in the second half of July.
ConditionsYes: if, between July 15 and 31, 2026, a bill proposing a complete ban or restriction on the retail sale of Apple devices (iPhones) in Russia is officially submitted to and registered with the State Duma of the Russian Federation.
No: if, between July 15 and 31, 2026, no such bill is submitted to the State Duma for consideration.
