Belarus Clarifies Reporting of Foreign Income by Tax Residents

For someone relocating to Belarus, the key threshold is the total period of stay—more than 183 days in a calendar year—rather than citizenship alone. Once treated as a tax resident, a person must report foreign salary, interest from overseas accounts and other foreign-source income; foreign tax may be credited when supporting documents are available. This matters most to remote workers, holders of foreign accounts and people spending most of the year in Belarus. Anyone planning a long stay should pay close attention to the rule and keep records for foreign income.
