In line with President’s Decree #643 signed on December 17, the stamps that are put in Belarusian passports to allow their owners to leave the country will be annulled starting January 1, 2008, BelTA learnt from the presidential press service. In such a way, the passport of the citizen of the Republic of Belarus will be valid for temporal travels abroad without permission stamps. The document provides for setting up a common database listing citizens, whose right to leave the country is temporarily restricted. In line with the decree, the relative statement determines the order of the database listing citizens, the list of the bodies which will form the database and also the mechanism of forwarding this information to the State Border Committee.
