Fueling in Belarus in Belarus: real experience from chats

Short answer
Fuel availability in Belarus is stable, with consistent supply and quality at Belarusneft stations. On the return route to Moscow, fuel shortages and refueling limits may occur, so it is recommended to refuel proactively in Belarus and carry an extra canister if necessary.

From real experience

Fuel availability in Belarus is stable for passenger cars.
For transit from Moscow to Belarus, fill up before crossing the border. On the return route (M1 towards Moscow), fuel shortages are reported at some stations; limits of 30 liters per refueling may apply. Apps indicating real-time fuel availability are often unreliable. Road tolls for cars under 3.5 tons registered in EAEU countries are free on Belarus highways.

Travelers driving from St. Petersburg to Minsk should be aware of potential gasoline shortages and queues at some Russian gas stations (e.g., Rosneft).
However, major brands like Lukoil, Teboil, and Gazprom typically have fuel. In Belarus, there are generally no fuel shortages or significant queues at gas stations. It is advised to refuel proactively and not wait until the last moment.
