Visa-free stay in Belarus to be extended

A draft decree to extend the period of visa-free entry to Belarus is in the final stage, the Belarusian Ministry of Foreign Affairs said. The document will extend the period of visa-free stay of foreign citizens arriving in Belarus through the Minsk National Airport to 10 days. Currently, nationals of 80 states may stay in Belarus without a visa for up to 5 days if they arrive in the country through the Minsk National Airport. This measure is aimed at developing tourism and business.
