The State Duma has proposed labeling alimony debtors on dating sites

Deputy Speaker of the State Duma from the New People party Vladislav Davankov addressed the head of the Ministry of Digital Development Maksut Shadayev and proposed introducing mandatory labeling of debtors for alimony on dating sites. This was reported by RIA Novosti.

Davankov believes that mandatory labeling will be an effective measure to combat debts. The vice-speaker believes that this will help increase the volume of collections, which at present, according to RIA Novosti, is several times less than the total amount of debts for alimony.

In addition, Davankov claims that accepting his proposal will help protect other dating site users from contact with debtors.

"Owners of dating sites and services will be able to obtain information about such debtors from the public register of alimony debtors, which will appear in May 2025. Given the development of facial recognition technologies in photographs, such marking can be added to the profile of the alimony defaulter automatically," Davankov wrote in his appeal.

The creation of a registry of alimony debtors became known in May of this year. Then Putin signed a law according to which the list of non-payers will be publicly available. According to Deputy Minister of Justice Andrei Loginov, the registry may include 133 thousand people.

In June of this year, the director of the Federal Bailiff Service (FSSP) Dmitry Aristov proposed to stop allowing debtors to attend football matches. In his opinion, attending official sports competitions is a "privilege."
