Visitors are advised to stay away from military establishments. Tourists may drive their own cars or may hire cars from some larger hotels. Those entering by car should have their visas registered at the hotel, motel or campsite where they stay for the first night and are advised to insure their vehicle with a Belarusian insurance company, some of which have offices at crossing points and in major cities. There are also a number of other national and international insurance companies. The petrol supply is restricted and only 4-star and diesel are available.
Petrol stations accept cash.
Up to one tank of petrol in canisters can be imported duty free. Contact the Embassy for information on the temporary documentation required to import a car.
