By order of the President of Belarus dated April 22, 2026 No. 136 "On passenger car transport in irregular communication", the legal management of the passenger car transport sector by taxi vehicles is being improved.

As explained in the branch of the Transport Inspection in the Gomel region, the grounds for suspension have increased. The list has been supplemented with the following grounds:

  • failure to submit a tax declaration;
  • presence of tax debt;
  • providing unreliable information to tax authorities;
  • failure to submit individual accounting documents for drivers with whom labor contracts were concluded;
  • repeated detection of violations of established procedures for receiving payment instruments and (or) use of cash and other equipment during payment receipt;
  • requirements set out in points 2.11 – 2.13 of the President's Order of the Republic of Belarus dated January 25, 2024 No. 32.

These measures are aimed at curbing the activities of day-labor organizations.

In this regard, an application for inclusion in the register of information may be submitted by a motor carrier, a dispatcher of passenger road transport in irregular services, or a taxi dispatcher, whose information has been excluded from the registry for committed violations, including those excluded up to October 25, 2026, after the expiration of three months from the date of exclusion from the register of information.

The above-mentioned changes came into force on October 25, 2026.
