Why this verdict
Dutch citizens are encoded as conditional because the Belarus MFA European regime is temporary, route-sensitive, and limited by annual stay rules rather than a simple permanent visa-free tourist flow. This destination-wave matrix record is intentionally conservative: special residence permits, diplomatic/service passports, work, study, airline routing, registration rules, Russia-route restrictions and border checks can change the practical answer. Reconfirm on the official source before booking.
