Minister of the Economy Darko Horvat informed his colleagues at the Government session that starting of the economic activity also involves more intensive movement of citizens, therefore it is necessary to enable a sufficient number of face masks to protect and prevent the spread of the virus in shops, public transport and other public spaces.

-In order to ensure the protection of health and life of people in the territory of the Republic of Croatia, due to the epidemic of Covid-19 disease caused by the SARS-Cov-2 virus, the Government of the Republic of Croatia limits the maximum retail price of face mask to a maximum of 12 kuna - Minister Horvat said.

The decision obliges the State Inspectorate of the Republic of Croatia to prepare, in cooperation with the Croatian Institute of Public Health, a template for the decleration, or more precisely the information on the product of the face mask.
