From 15 October 2026, a web application will start working in Belarus that will allow a europrotocol to be filed without calling traffic police (GAI) inspectors. Filing a road accident under this simplified procedure will become easier.

Ihar Klepcha stated that from 15 October it will become easier for Belarusian drivers to file europrotocols.

As early as 1 October, Telegram channels reported that a mobile service for digital filing of accident notifications would start working in October–November 2026. Now a specific date has been named.

The web application makes it possible to fill in an accident notification electronically on any mobile device running any operating system. It can be filled in on any smartphone, regardless of the manufacturer. There is no need to install a program on the phone.

The accident can be filed right on the phone by following step-by-step prompts. According to the same reports, data and photos from the scene are sent automatically to the GAI and insurance companies.

The service is free to use. According to Ihar Klepcha, it is much faster than paper: whereas a paper notification takes 10–15 minutes on average, the electronic one can be filled in within three minutes. He called the electronic notification intuitively simple.

According to non-state Belarusian outlets, both drivers must have phones with active numbers from Belarusian mobile operators. At least one device needs a camera, internet access and geolocation. Only an accident that happened in Belarus can be filed, involving vehicles registered in the country and not deregistered. The date the notification is filled in must match the date of the accident.

It is not yet known what to do if one of the drivers has no internet or the phone is damaged.

Ihar Klepcha also listed the legal conditions. Drivers must be sober, hold a licence of the appropriate category and have insurance contracts. No more than two vehicles may be involved in the accident, and only they may be damaged. No other property may be harmed, and there must be no harm to anyone's life or health.

According to Klepcha, the circumstances of the accident and the list of visible damage must not be in dispute. The drivers must agree on who is at fault and who is the injured party. The damage caused to each vehicle must not exceed 150 base units.

According to Belarusian state media, last year 50.6% of insurance claims under compulsory third-party motor liability insurance were handled via europrotocol without calling the GAI.

For advice, the head of the Belarusian Bureau of Transport Insurance recommended calling the call centre on the short number 140. From 15 October, call centre staff will remind callers about the web application and explain how to use it.

The number 140 can be called at any time and from anywhere. The operators, it is reported, will explain the details and check whether vehicle owners have motor insurance.

Compulsory third-party motor liability insurance has been in place in Belarus since July 2010. The Belarusian Bureau of Transport Insurance was created by presidential decree No. 100 of 19 February 1999 to organise such insurance.

On 31 January 2018, amendments to the Code of Administrative Offences and the Procedural-Executive Code of Administrative Offences came into force, affecting, among other things, Article 18.17 on leaving the scene of an accident.

We have covered the topic of the electronic notification before. In June, a piece titled "Once More on the Europrotocol" was published, and at the end of August, "No More Drawing Diagrams: Belarus Introduces a Digital Europrotocol. How Will It Work?"

Sources place the emphasis differently. State media focus on the legal conditions: sobriety, insurance, the parties' agreement on who is at fault. Independent outlets write about the technical requirements — vehicle registration in Belarus and matching dates — and about the number 140. Some details appear in only one group of sources, and some only in Telegram channels.

Three points are confirmed by sources from different groups: the application does not need to be installed, filling it in is free and quick, and the launch is set for 15 October.
