Belarus GAI Theory B exam-day guide
Belarus GAI Theory B · Prepare for the day ahead.
Your checklist
Passport or national ID (original)
Bring the original document you used for registration. Confirm with the provider which ID types are accepted and whether a photocopy is allowed as backup.
Medical certificate / driver's medical form
Belarus requires a medical certificate for the driving licence category you are testing for. Check the validity period and that the category matches your application; confirm the exact format with the provider.
Registration and payment confirmation
Bring the printed or electronic confirmation of your exam booking and paid state fee if your provider requires proof. Ask the provider whether a paper copy is mandatory.
Learning-permit / training documents
If you trained at a driving school, bring the completion documents it issued. Confirm with the provider which of them must be presented on exam day.
Appointment time and address of the exam venue
Write down the exact GAI office or exam site, the entrance, and the arrival time. Plan to arrive with a buffer for document checks.
Route and transport plan
Know how you will get there, including a backup route. Traffic and parking near the venue can add delay; aim to be early rather than on time.
Rest and no alcohol the day before
Sleep well and avoid alcohol entirely. Any alcohol in your system on exam day is a serious problem; do not rely on 'burning it off'.
Comfortable clothing and flat shoes
Wear clothes you can move in and shoes suited to operating pedals. Avoid thick soles that change pedal feel.
Glasses or contact lenses if required
If your licence will carry a vision correction condition, bring the correction you are required to wear. Confirm with the provider how this is checked.
No prohibited items in the vehicle
Leave phones, notes, and study materials out of reach or at home as instructed. Ask the provider where personal items must be stored during the test.
Water and a light snack
Waiting can be long. Keep it simple and avoid heavy meals right before driving.
Backup contact and charger
Carry a charged phone and a contact number for the provider in case of delay or a question about your booking.
Plan the day
Confirm your booking, the venue address, and the arrival time with the provider. Re-read the list of required documents and check that your medical certificate and training documents are valid and match your category. Resolve any gap now rather than on the day.
Do a final review of the theory topics that are weakest for you, and one or two practice drives if your training arrangement allows it. Focus on observation, mirror and signal routines, speed control, and parking manoeuvres rather than on new material.
Prepare your document folder and place it by the door. Check the weather forecast and plan clothing and travel time accordingly. Confirm how you will get to the venue and where you can park or wait.
Stop intensive studying. Do a light review of rules you often forget, then set the exam out of your mind. Prepare clothes and shoes, charge your phone, and set two alarms. Eat normally, avoid alcohol, and go to bed at a reasonable hour.
Eat a light breakfast, take your documents, and leave with a buffer so that traffic or a transport delay does not make you rush. Arrive early, use the waiting time to settle rather than to cram.
Follow the provider's instructions for document checks and waiting. Keep your phone stored as directed, stay calm, and listen carefully to the examiner's briefing before you enter the vehicle.
Read each question fully before answering, watch the time, and flag uncertain items to return to. Answer every question; do not leave blanks unless the format penalises wrong answers, which you should confirm with the provider.
Before moving off, adjust the seat, mirrors, and belt. Use mirrors and signals deliberately, keep to the speed limit, and narrate nothing unless asked. If you make a mistake, continue safely rather than trying to correct it abruptly.
Ask the examiner or provider what the result is and what the next step is: when and where you collect or receive the licence, and what to do if you did not pass. Confirm any retake rules with the provider.
Rules to check
Bring the original identity document used at registration; a copy or an expired document may not be accepted. Confirm the accepted ID types with the provider.
Follow the examiner's and provider's instructions at all times, including where to wait, where to store personal items, and when you may speak during the test.
Phones and other electronic devices must be switched off and stored as directed; using them during the test is treated as a serious violation.
Do not bring notes, study materials, or any aid into the test. Attempting to use outside help undermines the result and can lead to disqualification.
Any sign of alcohol or other impairment means you will not be allowed to test. Do not argue the point on the day; resolve it with the provider afterwards.
If you need a break or feel unwell, say so before or between test stages. Confirm with the provider what breaks are allowed and how they affect timing.
Scoring and pass criteria are set by the provider and the applicable rules. Ask the provider in advance how points are counted and what causes an immediate fail.
If you do not pass, do not discuss or dispute the result at the vehicle. Ask the provider for the formal review and retake procedure and follow it.
