Driving Licence Validity Extended To 20 Years

There are a number of other changes for drivers.

The validity of a driver's licence has been extended to 20 years in Belarus. This, among other things, is regulated by the decree (No. 55 of 16 February 2024), which changed more than 200 administrative procedures. The document has been published by the National Legal Internet Portal.

Thus, in Belarus, the term of validity of a driving licence has been increased: from 10 to 20 years. As well as the validity of the permit to participate in road traffic for cars with less than 3 years since the year of issue has been extended by a year - up to 3 years.

And also the terms of issuance of certificates of registration of vehicles in traffic police have been reduced - up to 7 working days. And now, when issuing a permit to allow a vehicle to participate in road traffic, a driver's licence and insurance certificate will no longer be required.
