In Belarus for 5 days - without a visa

Belarus introduced a five-day visa-free travel for citizens of 80 countries. Visa-free travel is granted to tourists who cross the state border in the Minsk National Airport. A valid passport or other document permitting foreign travels, money, medical insurance will be needed for the visa-free entry. People visiting Belarus visa-free will not have to get registered with the interior bodies. There will be no restrictions on the number of trips to Belarus once the new visa regulations come into effect. The Sports and Tourism Ministry forecasts a 20% increase in tourist numbers after the introduction of visa-free entry to Belarus. The UNWTO has expressed its full support to the decision of the Government of Belarus to launch the 5-day visa-free policy.
