Updated 2026-11-14 · 4 min read · by LFCarry PRO team

How to Unlock Prapor in Tarkov: Tour Steps and Quests

How to unlock Prapor in Tarkov

A new character starts with Prapor locked. The Tour story chapter opens him, after 3 other traders:

  1. Ground Zero, then Therapist. Escape Ground Zero in the tutorial raid and talk to Therapist.
  2. Ragman and Interchange. Talk to Ragman, survive and extract from Interchange or visit it 3 times, then report back. Ragman’s report unlocks Skier and the Customs map.
  3. Skier and Customs. Survive and extract from Customs or visit it 3 times, and hand Skier 5 building materials found in raid. That opens Mechanic as a trader and the Factory map.
  4. Mechanic and Factory. Survive and extract from Factory or visit it 3 times, and hand Mechanic any 2 weapons found in raid. This step unlocks Prapor, together with Woods.

An extract counts with the Survived or Run-Through status. Later in Tour, Prapor himself asks for 5 PMC dogtags to open Reserve. Those dogtags need no found in raid status, and you can loot them from PMCs someone else killed.

What Prapor sells and gives

Prapor deals in roubles. He sells post-Soviet weapons, ammo, magazines, grenades and gear, and he insures your kit.

On a Season 1 KORD BREACH character he also hands out the opening quest of the season line, Uninvited Guests Part 1. Season 1 runs from 3 August to 7 December 2026, and our Kord Breach quests guide lists the 20 quests in order.

Prapor loyalty levels

Loyalty level 1 comes with the unlock. Each higher level needs a character level and a reputation score with Prapor:

Loyalty levelCharacter levelReputation
260.70
3212.70
4367.90

Patch 1.1.0 of 3 August 2026 removed the money-spent target from trader loyalty levels, so level and reputation are all that count. Reputation comes mostly from his quests.
