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 GRB210903.58 (trigger No 1071762,09h 01m 45.05s , -40d 19m 14.5s, R=0.0016) errorbox  42372 sec after notice time and 42385 sec after trigger time at 2021-09-04 01:34:44 UT, with upper limit up to  17.5 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 82 deg. The sun  altitude  is -42.1 deg. 

MASTER-OAFA robotic telescope  located in Argentina (OAFA observatory of San Juan National University) was pointed to the Swift GRB210903.58 errorbox  64806 sec after notice time and 64820 sec after trigger time at 2021-09-04 07:48:39 UT, with upper limit up to  17.9 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 79 deg. The sun  altitude  is -38.7 deg. 

The galactic latitude b =  4 deg., longitude l = 263 deg.
