Local stay registration
Belarus MFA's general page says temporary foreign visitors must register within 10 days unless an exception applies; its airport page instead refers to stays over 10 working days. If your stay may reach either threshold, confirm the deadline and ask your hotel or host whether they will register you. Electronic registration is free.

Belarus MFA's current airport page lists six airports and requires 90 days' validity beyond intended departure. To avoid boarding or entry problems, plan to use Minsk and meet the six-month passport advice until the two authorities confirm the same conditions.
