Is PCP legal in Belarus?

Also known as: angel dust

Legal status

PCP is controlled in Belarus. The annexes to Постановление Министерства здравоохранения № 19 от 11 февраля 2015 г. республиканский перечень print the entry «ФЕНЦИКЛИДИН» in Cyrillic script, and registry number 77-10-1 is what fixes which molecule that entry catches. The annex prints the full systematic Russian name and not the three letter code, so a search for the code alone does not reach the row. That is a reading trap rather than a legal one, but it is the kind of miss that produces a false absence record. The terms taken to the annexes were "pcp", "PCP", and the row accepted was the printed entry itself rather than the paragraph that establishes the list, because the schedule owns the substance entries and the offence article does not. The version read was № 19/2015 with the official 2025 and 10 March 2026 amendments, record BEL-73.

Consequences if caught

Capital exposure: none. Belarus retains capital punishment as a country, and that is exactly why this line has to be read carefully rather than skimmed: no drug offence in Criminal Code articles 327 to 328 with a superscript one carries it. The entry relied on for PCP is «Фенциклидин; phenylcyclohexylamine group 1.2.П03». The ceiling for a drug offence is 25 years. Criminal Code article 328(5) provides a term of twelve to twenty-five years. That is the top of the drug scale and it is not death. A source that reports three quantity bands for Belarus has read another country's structure into it. Resolution No. 606 gives one. The quantity instrument prints this row as «instrument gives no significant band»; «large size: over 1.0 g»; «instrument gives no separate especially-large band». Resolution No. 606 gives a large-size figure and nothing else. Where this row says the instrument gives no significant band or no especially large band, that is the instrument's own silence and not a gap in the reading.

If prescribed or medical

The traveller rule is stated at country level and it is the same for every substance in this set: Belarus provides no lawful personal use allowance and no traveller exemption, and a scheduled medicine has to satisfy Закон Республики Беларусь «О лекарственных средствах» as well as the narcotics annexes, meaning prescription, original packaging, and import and customs formalities. This row's placement is the printed entry «ФЕНЦИКЛИДИН» in the республиканский перечень, record BEL-73, so any medicinal route runs through that placement. A criminal quantity band is not a lawful traveller allowance. The source states no medical route specific to PCP and none is supplied here. The placement is printed under the full systematic Russian name, so a declaration carrying only the three letter code will not visibly match the row it attaches to.

Documentation

Carry it only with the Belarusian prescription and dispensing paperwork the medicines law requires, in the original dispensing packaging, with the substance named on any declaration the way the annex names it, «ФЕНЦИКЛИДИН», and with registry number 77-10-1 available if the name is queried. The placement at BEL-73 was read against № 19/2015 with the official 2025 and 10 March 2026 amendments on 20 September 2026. A later amendment can change an entry, so recheck the annexes before travel rather than relying on the date on this cell. Write the full systematic name as the annex prints it, because the three letter code does not appear on the row and an official looking for it will not find it.

Drug laws and enforcement change and vary within a country. This is not legal advice. Always confirm with Belarus’s embassy or official drug authority before traveling; penalties can be severe, including imprisonment.
