Belarus: fire safety

“Law” is a binding rule. “Official guidance” is not law, but inspectors expect it. “Chef Hygiene default” is a value the app checks against where no rule gives a number.

• LawUntil 31 December 2026, the General fire safety requirements (Decree No. 7 of 2017): escape routes and exits marked with signs, an evacuation plan on each floor where more than 10 people are, locks on escape doors that open from the inside without a key, and fire briefings organised by the head.
• LawFrom 1 January 2027, Edict No. 212 of 25 June 2026: much the same duties, with extinguishers kept by MChS's norms, marked with signs and recharged as the maker says.
• Chef Hygiene defaultFire: 101 or 112. Extinguishers, fire alarm and electrics: Chef Hygiene suggests dates you can change. No exact Belarusian interval was confirmed, and neither was how often fire briefings are repeated.
