Changes in Belarus' Tax-Free Regulations for Imported Goods
Starting from April 1, 2024, Belarus will modify its tax-free regulations for imported goods, reducing the limit to 500 euros and 25 kilograms.

According to Charter97, Belarus will modify its regulations on tax-free imports of goods via land from abroad starting from April 1, 2024. They intend to reduce the limit to 500 euros and 25 kilograms.

 

Starting from April, the tax-free limit for international packages will also be adjusted.

 

The maximum limit now stands at 1000 euros and 31 kilograms. In other words, they intend to reduce the duty-free value threshold by half.

 

The current tax-free restrictions on imported goods from abroad through land borders were introduced at the level of the Eurasian Economic Union in April 2022, and have been extended three times until October 1st. The last extension was until April 1st, 2024.

 

Previously, Belarus had a limit of 500 euros and 25 kilograms; they plan to implement this cap starting from April 1, 2024.

 

If the limit is exceeded, a 30% tariff is required, with a minimum charge of 4 euros per kilogram over the limit.

 

As for cigarettes, the current and April restrictions allow each adult to carry up to 200 cigarettes, or 50 cigars (small cigars), or 250 grams of tobacco (or a total weight not exceeding 250 grams of these products). The alcohol limit for each adult is set at 3 liters.

 

If one is traveling by plane, the duty-free limit for imported goods from abroad is 10,000 euros and 50 kilograms.
