Visa countries

Please, consult official web-site of the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Belarus to know if citizens of your country need a visa to arrive at the Republic of Belarus.

If residents of your country need a visa to come to Belarus, then you will need to ask the university to send you an invitation letter to study and apply for a student visa in the Belarusian embassy in your country.

To receive an official invitation, a foreign citizen must attach the following documents to the foreign applicant's Digital Account:

• a copy of passport or other identity document;
• a copy of the document on education indicating the subjects studied and the grades (scores) obtained in the examinations;
• a copy of the birth certificate (if you are under the age of 18 at the time of submitting the documents);
• HIV- free certificate.

Each document in a foreign language must be accompanied by a notarized translation into Belarusian or Russian. Documents can be notarized either in the country of citizenship or upon arrival in Belarus. Except for notarization of the identity document, which must be done on the territory of Belarus.

After receiving the documents of the candidate for training, the university carries out their examination and makes a decision on the possibility of issuing an invitation to study.

The University sends a scan copy of the invitation to study to the candidate for training. The Department of citizenship and migration sends notification of the approval of the invitation to the Embassy of the Republic of Belarus in the candidate's country of residence.

The candidate for training applies for a study visa at the consular office of the Republic of Belarus at the place of his/her residence or upon arrival at the airport of Minsk.

In accordance with the requirements of the border control authorities of the Republic of Belarus, as well as the General Consular Department, citizens obtaining a visa at the consular section of Minsk National Airport must notify the university 15 days prior to arrival of the date of arrival and itinerary. A visa will be issued at the airport ONLY in the presence of all necessary documents and in the presence of an official representative of the university.

If you have any questions, you can contact us by email (This email address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it.).

When you receive the invitation letter from the university, address the Belarusian Consulate in your home country for a student visa. Visa requirements vary for different countries. Detailed information for your region is available from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Republic of Belarus.

You can also use the transfer from the Minsk National Airport to Grodno. Additional information about transfer services you can find here.
