We prove Mermin-Wagner-type theorems for quantum lattice systems in the presence of multipole symmetries. These theorems show that the presence of higher-order symmetries protects against the breaking of lower-order ones. In particular, we prove that the critical dimension in which the charge symmetry can be broken increases if the system admits higher multipole symmetries, e.g. $ d = 4 $ on the regular lattice $ \mathbb{ Z}^d $ in the presence of dipole symmetry.
