Foreign subjects' ownership right to land in Belarus is

of land is carried out on other types of land rights.
Business
- Ownership right
The Code of the Republic of Belarus on land (hereafter - Land
Code) doesn't provide for foreign legal entity's ownership
right to land. However, foreign investors can exercise this right
indirectly by creating entities on the territory of Belarus, since
land plots can be transferred to the ownership of Belarusian
entities, including those with foreign investments.
But there are land plots that are not subject to privatization
under article 13 of the Land Code, specifically lands of
agricultural designation, nature protection, recreational,
recreation, historical and cultural purpose, lands of the forest
fund, lands of the water fund, lands under roads and other
transport communications, common-use lands.
