CBD is illegal in Belarus. The Standing Commission on Drug Control treats cannabidiol as a controlled substance because the List of Narcotic Drugs, Psychotropic Substances and Their Precursors under Ministry of Health Resolution No. 51 does not exempt CBD or low-THC extracts.

Travelers and online buyers face the same possession penalties as for marijuana.
