MASTER-SAAO robotic telescope  (Global MASTER-Net: http://observ.pereplet.ru, Lipunov et al., 2010, Advances in Astronomy, vol. 2010, 30L)  located in South Africa (South African Astronomical Observatory) was pointed to the Swift GRB210621.71 (trigger No 1057131,15h 55m 14.88s , -54d 03m 46.8s, R=0.05) errorbox 79 sec after trigger time at 2021-06-21 17:05:55 UT, with upper limit up to  16.6 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 43 deg. The sun  altitude  is -17.3 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -1 deg., longitude l = 328 deg.
