Border guards have received new authorities.

The arrested vehicle of the debtor will not be able to cross the state border of Belarus, while the car itself will be handed over to bailiffs. This is stipulated by the Resolution of the Ministry of Justice No. 93 "On the interaction of enforcement authorities with state bodies and organisations" of May 21, 2021.

According to the document, after issuing a ban on the movement of an arrested vehicle across the border, the Ministry of Justice will send information about such vehicles to the State Border Committee no later than one working day in order to include it in the automated information system operating at border crossing points.

If the arrested car tries to cross the border, border guards will block it at the checkpoint and "immediately inform the enforcement authorities".

Bailiffs, in turn, are obliged to come for the arrested car within three days, seize it and send it to a guarded car park.

The decree comes into force on March 1, 2024.
