Mandatory medical insurance of foreign citizens and stateless persons temporarily staying or temporarily residing in the Republic of Belarus

Foreign citizens temporarily staying or temporarily residing in the Republic of Belarus must have a compulsory medical insurance contract (Beleximgarant or Belgosstrakh) or a medical insurance contract concluded with a foreign insurance organization in case of emergency medical aid provided by medical institutions.

The Beleximgarant compulsory health insurance contract can be purchased by a foreign citizen at checkpoints on the State Border of the Republic of Belarus (international airports, border points) upon arrival in the Republic of Belarus.

Also, persons inviting a foreign citizen to the Republic of Belarus (legal entities of the Republic of Belarus, citizens of the Republic of Belarus, foreign citizens legally staying in the Republic of Belarus) may conclude the contract of Beleximgarant compulsory medical insurance in favor of a foreign citizen.

In order to conclude a compulsory health insurance contract, an insured person must apply orally to the insurer and provide the surname, first name, patronymic name (if any) of the person for whose benefit the contract is concluded, his/her permanent place of residence, citizenship and period of stay in the Republic of Belarus.

The insurance period of a compulsory health insurance contract is set for the period of stay or temporary residence of a foreign national in the Republic of Belarus and is specified in the insurance policy.

The insurance premium is paid in Belarusian roubles, or in freely convertible currency, and in Russian roubles at the same time.

The sum insured for compulsory medical insurance of foreign citizens and stateless persons temporarily staying or temporarily residing in the Republic of Belarus is set at 10,000 euros.
