News : Changes in the rules of entry into the Republic of Belarus

Belarus is still an open country to visit. To reduce the risk of the spread of coronavirus infection in Belarus, a number of measures and restrictions have been taken to control the situation. Among them, from October 14, 2020, a new mandatory requirement has been introduced - a negative test for COVID-19. Requirements for a medical document:

• the test must be made no later than 72 hours before the date of crossing the State Border of the Republic of Belarus by the polymerase chain reaction method;
• the medical document must contain the last name, first name of the citizen and the result of laboratory tests for COVID-19 infection;
• the document can be written in Russian, or Belarusian, or English.

The absence of this medical document is a grounds for refusal to enter the Republic of Belarus by officers of the border service.
For more details on entry conditions see the section Entry to Belarus during a pandemic Сovid-19.

Russian citizens can come to Belarus for treatment by booking a tour to a health resort. On the Internet portal Sanatorii.by all health resorts in Belarus are presented, which offer tours with treatment, health programs from 2 days and weekend tours.
