The number of Belarusians in Serbia (Serbian: Белоруси у Србији, romanized: Belorusi u Srbiji, Belarusian: Беларусы ў Сербіі, romanized: Biełarusy w Serbii) is around 5,501 people, as stated by the Ministry of Internal Affairs of Serbia, between February 24 and November 2, 2022. Most of these Belarusians do not have Serbian citizenship, and have arrived during the Russian invasion of Ukraine.[1]
These numbers include all temporary passing residence and registered emigrants, including statistics from required registration after 30 days of visa free residence. Because of this, actual number of residence with Belarusian citizenship is smaller from the statistical numbers given my the Ministry of Internal Affairs.[1]
