Tipping in Russia
The tipping is not obligatory, upon person's own decision. The official rate of tipping at cafes and restaurants is 5-10% of the amount.
Concerning the taxis if the price is already negotiated,
you do not need to leave tips to the driver. Of course, bargaining is possible, but usually with street vendors and taxi drivers.
