Belarus to legalize parallel imports

7 июня 2022

In order to prevent the shortage of imported goods in the country and to saturate the market with necessary foreign products Belarus will legalize the "parallel import". It means that not only the right holder or official distributor, but any importer will be able to import the goods into the country. Such a decision was taken by the Council of Ministers. Now a legislative document is being developed. It will also be possible to use software and other tools in the digital sphere without the permission of copyright holders.
