Visa-free entry to the Republic of Belarus for citizens of the Republic of Latvia, the Republic of Lithuania, and the Republic of Poland has been extended for 2024

President of Belarus Alexander Lukashenko decided to support the Government's proposal and extend the visa-free entry to our country for citizens of three EU countries for 2024, his press service reported.

"The visa-free regime in 2022–2023 showed a sustained interest of residents of neighboring countries in visiting the Republic of Belarus, despite the obstacles and restrictions imposed by the leadership of Lithuania, Latvia, and Poland," the statement notes.

During the period of the visa-free regime, more than 784 thousand people from Lithuania, Latvia, and Poland visited our country, including almost 400 thousand people from January 1, 2023. It is noted that for some residents of the regions of Lithuania and Latvia bordering Belarus, these trips became a "source of obtaining necessary goods and medicines."
