As it was specified, the work is still prohibited for catering facilities within shopping malls, however, they are allowed to sell food and drinks over the counter.

The decree also states that the facility manager is obliged to prevent a large number of people from gathering at the counters, as well as to ensure that distance of two meters is held between them at all times.

The useful area of the entire facility must be prominently displayed at the entrance i.e. the space and the number of people who are allowed to be in it, as well as the obligation of visitors to wear protective masks.

Employees must wear a protective mask during work, common areas and items used must be disinfected every hour.

In shopping malls, a covid warden must be appointed, whose responsibility is to ensure the measures of wearing masks are being honored. If the facility has several entrances and exits, as well as several floors and an area larger than 500 square meters, additional covid wardens must be appointed.

When it comes to other service activities, the measures remain the same, which means that all types of sales and service facilities can work until 10 pm, including the gardens of restaurants and cafes, however, without live music.

Pharmacies, gas stations, food delivery, doctor's offices, as well as medical, veterinarian and dentist's laboratories, are allowed to work without restrictions.
