Mika,

Did you mean entering Belarus from Russia?
I am no expert but as far as I know their is no ¨international border¨ between Belarus ans Russia. Foreigners are still not allowed to cross the Belarus-Russian border into Russia. I assume it will be valid then also the other way around from Russia to Belarus. The latest information i read still says that Russia and Belarus are talking about opening a border crossing for foreigners between their countries but the relationship between those countries is not up to its best for now. Don´t take my word for it but maybe good to get better information about this topic if you plan to go that way.

There is one border which works.

It is the three way border "Three Sisters" in the corner Belarus, Ukraine and Russia.

This one works.
I have met motorcycle riders who crossed there.

Seems like it would only be a day's ride from there up to Latvian border (and depending on where you're going, another day's ride back down); honestly I'd probably rather do that than mess with the Belorus visa/border hassles.

Again, is this the current process? Several years ago when the Temp Import was 90 days, it could be renewed for up to a year, but it was kind of a hassle to do it, at least in Moscow.
Current of October 1st 2019. I had mine imported at Kyrgyzstan though it is the same system.

Crimea
 
Priviet,

So it sounds like you plan to try to enter Ukraine from Crimea? Otherwise you could just enter Ukraine near Kharkov, no need to go through Belorus.
Yes, thats the idea at the moment. But of course I will talk to locals and Russian and Ukrainian friends before I try. I assume Crimea will be visited in August by lots of Ukrainians on holiday, so I will just gather info.

@Rognv

Yes, the plan is, when I refused entry into Ukraine I will cross into Belarus. Thank you for the link, this is new to me .... seems very strange.

In 2015 I crossed overland from Belarus to Russia on the bike. The border that Klausmong1 mentioned, in the South of Belarus, East of Gomel.

If your information is correct, then a visa for Belarus would be useless for me.


Thanks all for the info. It helps me planing my short trip :D this European summer.

Who said that? and where?

Entry to Russia from Ukraine happens all the time ... thousands of vehicles every day. Just not at closed border crossings. There are plenty that are open (from the Belarus Border corner to near Kharkiv)
