The validity period of certificates and other documents is extended

On November 25, 2020, the President of the Republic of Belarus signed the Decree № 442 “On the extension of the validity of documents”, under which the validity of certificates and other documents is extended by six months.

The validity of certificates and other documents is extended by six months if the validity of such certificates and other documents has expired from November 10, 2020 to May 10, 2021.

Resolution of the Council of Ministers of the Republic of Belarus dated December 2, 2020 № 687 “On documents, the validity of which is extended” defines the list of such documents the validity of which is extended.

Moreover, the period of validity of the national identity card of the seaman of the Republic of Belarus is extended.

The extension of the validity period of documents does not prohibit to contact state bodies in order to perform administrative procedures. These measures allow to abstain from additional visits to public places due to the difficult epidemiological situation.
