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 GRB 210919A ( A. Tohuvavohu et al., GCN 30846) errorbox 47 sec after trigger time at 2021-09-19 00:29:20 UT, with upper limit up to  18.6 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 61 deg. The sun  altitude  is -49.0 deg. 

MASTER-Kislovodsk robotic telescope  located in Russia (Lomonosov MSU, Kislovodsk Solar Station of Pulkovo observatory) was pointed to the Swift GRB 210919A errorbox  363 sec after notice time and 790 sec after trigger time at 2021-09-19 00:41:44 UT, with upper limit up to  14.3 mag. The observations began at zenith distance = 50 deg. The sun  altitude  is -24.1 deg. 

The galactic latitude b = -19 deg., longitude l = 201 deg.
