If you’re looking at Belarus as a place to build a tech operation, the High-Tech Park (HTP) regime is almost certainly part of the conversation. The tax benefits — 0% profit tax, 0% VAT on qualifying activity, a capped FSZN base — are the headline. But before any of that math runs, there’s a question […]
When you hire a developer in Belarus through an EOR, the salary you fund is only part of the picture. Your employee also receives a package of statutory contributions, statutory leave, and — depending on how you structure the engagement — discretionary benefits on top. The package shapes how attractive your offer is locally, what […]
Your Belarusian entity signs with a PEO. The provider takes over payroll calculation, files the returns, runs the bank transfers, and produces clean monthly reports. It feels like the tax exposure went with the workload. It didn’t. In Belarus, what’s marketed as “co-employment” or “shared employer responsibilities” is administrative outsourcing. The legal employer is still […]
You found the right Senior Go developer in Minsk. She has interviewed well, she is available, and she wants to start in three weeks. The problem is not her — it is you. Your company has no legal entity in Belarus, no local payroll, no way to issue a compliant employment contract in Russian, and […]
The HTP Startup Center is one of the key support instruments for early-stage technology projects within the High-Tech Park (HTP). It is designed to help teams move from an idea to a sustainable business model, minimizing legal, organizational, and financial barriers at the outset.

Angel investments are a key financing mechanism for early-stage startups and innovative projects. They provide not only capital but also experience, contacts, and strategic guidance. Unlike venture capital funds, angel investors usually act individually, risking their own money for promising ideas and teams that can impact the market. In Belarusian and international startup ecosystems, angel […]
The digital economy has given rise to new financial models that combine traditional banking and blockchain technologies. One such model is a “crypto bank” — a company that operates with digital assets (tokens), provides custody services, supports cryptocurrency transactions, and integrates blockchain solutions into business processes within the High-Tech Park (HTP) regime in Belarus. A […]
The Fourth Industrial Revolution is not an abstract concept but a real transformation of manufacturing, logistics, and business operations. Industry 4.0 is redefining value creation: automation extends beyond individual processes, data becomes a strategic asset, and digital solutions integrate across the entire production chain. For Belarusian enterprises, this is already a key factor of competitiveness […]
IT companies are increasingly working in a cross-border format: customers are outside Belarus, teams are distributed in different countries, and contracts are governed by foreign law. In such circumstances, dispute resolution goes beyond the normal national judicial system and requires a conscious choice of jurisdiction. For IT companies, litigation is not only a tool for […]
Corporate culture has long ceased to be just a “buzzword” — today it is one of the key success factors for any IT company. It determines how employees interact with each other, what values they share, how decisions are made, and how conflicts are resolved. In the context of intense competition for talented professionals and […]
Residents of the High-Tech Park (HTP) face increased requirements for financial transparency and proper accounting. Annual (financial) statements for such companies are not merely a formal summary of business results, but an important tool for confirming good faith operations, compliance with established conditions, and the accuracy of financial indicators. That is why the audit of […]
