1What is the primary codified legislative act that regulates architectural, urban planning, and construction activities across the Republic of Belarus?

A.The Code of the Republic of Belarus on Architectural, Urban-Planning and Construction Activity (No. 289-Z)

B.Law No. 300-Z on Architectural, Urban-Planning and Construction Activity of 2004

C.Presidential Decree No. 26 'On measures to improve construction activity'

D.Council of Ministers Resolution No. 252 on attestation in construction

Explanation: The Code of the Republic of Belarus on Architectural, Urban-Planning and Construction Activity was adopted on 17 July 2023 as No. 289-Z, and its main provisions took effect on 23 July 2024. It is the codified primary statute for the whole sector, and Chapters 7 and 8 govern attestation of organisations and of individual specialists respectively.

2Belarus moved the complexity classification of construction objects from СТБ 2331-2015 to СН 3.02.07-2020 «Объекты строительства. Классификация» on 10 June 2021. Under that classification, which class covers the most complex objects, including high-rise buildings, structures with spans over 100 m, and production or warehouse buildings over 40,000 m²?

A.Complexity Class 1 (К-1)

B.Complexity Class 2 (К-2)

C.Complexity Class 4 (К-4)

D.Complexity Class 5 (К-5)

Explanation: СН 3.02.07-2020, approved by Ministry of Architecture and Construction Resolution No. 63 of 26 October 2020, keeps five complexity classes running from К-1 (most complex) down to К-5 (least complex). Class К-1 covers high-rise buildings, long-span structures with spans over 100 m, production and warehouse buildings over 40,000 m², metro structures and aerodrome structures.

3For which building complexity classes is statutory qualification attestation of engineering specialists and corporate certification of compliance mandatory in Belarus?

A.Complexity Classes 1 through 4 (К-1, К-2, К-3, and К-4)

B.Complexity Classes 1 and 2 only (К-1 and К-2)

C.Complexity Class 1 only (К-1)

D.All complexity classes including single-family residential Class 5 (К-1 to К-5)

Explanation: Belstroytsentr states that attestation of construction participants is mandatory for objects of complexity classes K-1 to K-4 irrespective of the construction method or the source of funding, including works carried out by the developer's own workforce. Objects of class K-5, works classed as current repair, and installation or servicing of process equipment fall outside the requirement.

4What is the statutory validity period of a specialist qualification certificate (квалификационный аттестат) issued by RUP Belstroytsentr in Belarus?

A.5 years

B.3 years

C.10 years

D.Indefinite, subject only to continuous employment

Explanation: A qualification certificate for a manager or specialist in construction runs for 5 years. When that period expires the certificate lapses automatically, with no separate revocation decision needed, and the specialist must be sent through attestation again to keep working in the regulated role.

5Under the Belarusian Construction Code, which entity is legally defined as the party that finances or organizes construction, acquires land rights, secures design permits, and commissions the completed object?

A.The Customer or Developer (Заказчик / Застройщик)

B.The General Contractor (Генеральный подрядчик)

C.The General Designer (Генеральный проектировщик)

D.The State Construction Supervision Inspectorate (Госстройнадзор)

Explanation: The Customer/Developer (Заказчик/Застройщик) is the central legal entity responsible for securing project financing, land tenure, initial permitting (such as APZ), engaging designers and contractors, and accepting the completed building into operation.

6A specialist holds a valid Belstroytsentr qualification certificate that names their previous employer, and then moves to a different construction company. What does Belarusian attestation practice require?

A.The new employer must send the specialist for attestation again — a certificate naming an employer may be used only in the organisation named in it

B.The certificate transfers automatically once the new employer files a written notice with Belstroytsentr

C.The certificate remains valid for the balance of its 5-year term at any employer in Belarus

D.The specialist may work under the old certificate until it expires and only then attest with the new employer

Explanation: A qualification certificate that records a particular employer is tied to that legal entity. When the holder changes employer, the specialist is put through attestation again in the general order at the request of the new employer — the existing certificate cannot simply be carried across.

7A customer wants one of its own engineers to exercise technical supervision (технический надзор) over construction of a complexity class K-2 building. What must that individual engineer hold?

A.A valid Belstroytsentr qualification certificate (квалификационный аттестат) for the technical supervision engineer direction

B.A higher engineering diploma only — in-house staff of the customer are outside the attestation requirement

C.A certificate of conformity (аттестат соответствия) issued in the engineer's own name

D.A state construction inspector's warrant issued by the regional Gosstroynadzor inspection

Explanation: Belarusian law runs two parallel forms of attestation: organisations and individual entrepreneurs receive a certificate of conformity (аттестат соответствия), while managers and specialists receive a personal qualification certificate (квалификационный аттестат). Technical supervision on objects of classes K-1 to K-4 is a regulated activity, and 'Инженер по техническому надзору' is one of the attestation directions Belstroytsentr examines.

8Which document is issued by the local executive and administrative body (исполком) to establish mandatory urban planning, spatial, and aesthetic parameters for designing a building on a designated land plot in Belarus?

A.Architectural and Planning Assignment (Архитектурно-планировочное задание — АПЗ)

B.Technical conditions for connection to engineering networks (технические условия)

C.Decision of the local executive committee allocating the land plot

D.Project Execution Plan section of the architectural project (Проект организации строительства — ПОС)

Explanation: The Architectural and Planning Assignment is the item of permitting documentation issued by the local executive and administrative body that fixes the binding urban-planning, spatial and architectural parameters the designer must work to. The designer develops the project documentation against those parameters, and state construction expertise later checks compliance with them.

9What is the minimum passing score required to pass the computer-based qualification attestation exam administered by RUP Belstroytsentr?

A.85% (minimum 34 correct answers out of 40 questions)

B.70% (minimum 28 correct answers out of 40 questions)

C.75% (minimum 30 correct answers out of 40 questions)

D.95% (minimum 38 correct answers out of 40 questions)

Explanation: RUP Belstroytsentr states that the qualification exam is computer-based testing lasting one hour, in which the candidate answers 40 questions drawn from different thematic blocks, and that the threshold for a positive result is not less than 85% correct answers of the total number of questions. Eighty-five per cent of 40 items is 34.

10Under the Rules for concluding and performing construction contracts (Council of Ministers Resolution No. 1450), what is the minimum warranty period for objects accepted into operation and for the construction works that were the subject of the contract?

A.5 years

B.1 year

C.2 years

D.10 years

Explanation: The Rules approved by Council of Ministers Resolution No. 1450 of 15 September 1998 set a minimum warranty period of 5 years for objects accepted into operation and for contracted construction works — raised from the earlier 2 years. Process, engineering, sanitary and electrical equipment carries whatever warranty the manufacturer or a technical normative legal act sets. The period runs from approval of the acceptance act for an object, or from the customer's acceptance of the works.

About the Belarus Construction Specialist Attestation Exam

The Belarusian construction specialist attestation exam is the qualification test run by RUP Belstroytsentr as the organisation authorised by the Ministry of Architecture and Construction. Attestation is governed by Chapter 8 of the Code of the Republic of Belarus on Architectural, Urban-Planning and Construction Activity (No. 289-Z of 17 July 2023, in force since 23 July 2024), together with Presidential Decree No. 26 and Council of Ministers Resolution No. 252. Passing it is how civil engineers, chief project engineers (ГИП), chief architects of projects (ГАП), technical supervision engineers, site managers (прорабы), estimators and construction managers obtain the personal qualification certificate (квалификационный аттестат) valid for 5 years that lets them work on objects of complexity classes K-1 to K-4. This bank is an independent English-language MCQ study aid, not an official translation or a simulation of the Belstroytsentr test.

Assessment

The official qualification exam is delivered only as computer-based testing: 40 questions from several thematic blocks in a 60-minute session at RUP Belstroytsentr, with a pass threshold of at least 85% correct answers. Belstroytsentr does not publish a percentage blueprint, and the item mix depends on the attestation direction applied for (chief project engineer, chief architect of a project, technical supervision engineer, foreman/site manager, estimator, lead surveyor, and others). Belstroytsentr reports that legal and regulatory items give candidates the most trouble, while questions on the candidate's own type of work cause the fewest problems.

Belarus Construction Specialist Attestation Study Tips from Top Performers

1Work from the Code of the Republic of Belarus on Architectural, Urban-Planning and Construction Activity (No. 289-Z) itself — Chapter 7 covers attestation of organisations and Chapter 8 covers qualification certificates for managers and specialists, and both replaced the old Law No. 300-Z on 23 July 2024

2Belstroytsentr says legal and regulatory items cause candidates the most trouble while questions about their own trade cause the fewest, so spend most of your preparation on legislation rather than on technology you already practise

3Study Technical Regulation TR 2025/013/BY 'О безопасности строительных материалов и изделий', which replaced TR 2009/013/BY on 8 September 2025 and now covers only construction materials and products placed on the market

4Learn the mandatory content and approval routes for the ПОС (design stage) and the ППР (contractor, before works start) under СН 1.03.04-2020

5Drill the three stages of construction quality control — inbound control of incoming materials, operational control during execution, and acceptance control of completed elements

6Review geodetic works under СН 1.03.02-2019 and the executive documentation set: hidden-works acts, intermediate acceptance acts for critical structures, as-built geodetic schemes and the general site diary

7Learn commissioning from Chapter 25 of Code No. 289-Z, which has governed acceptance into operation since 23 July 2024 and reduced the assessment to four criteria; Resolution No. 716 now applies only where it does not contradict the Code

8Buy the official self-preparation question set for your attestation direction from Belstroytsentr and use its rehearsal testing — the pool exceeds 14,000 items and is direction-specific

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the Belstroytsentr construction specialist attestation exam?

It is the qualification exam (квалификационный экзамен) taken during attestation of managers and specialists working in architecture, urban planning and construction. RUP Belstroytsentr, the organisation authorised by the Ministry of Architecture and Construction, runs the exam; the Ministry then decides whether to issue the qualification certificate. Attestation is regulated by Chapter 8 of Code No. 289-Z, which has been in force since 23 July 2024.

What is the format, duration and passing score of the exam?

RUP Belstroytsentr states that the qualification exam is held only as computer-based testing. Candidates answer 40 questions from several thematic blocks in one hour, and the pass threshold is at least 85% correct answers of the total — 34 of 40. Belstroytsentr also reports that about 15% of candidates fail at the first attempt.

How long is a Belarusian qualification certificate valid?

A qualification certificate (квалификационный аттестат) is valid for 5 years, after which it lapses automatically and the specialist must be put through attestation again. Certificates are now issued electronically, with a paper copy available on request, and the Ministry of Architecture and Construction decides on issuance within 10 working days after the exam.

What does the attestation cost?

The statutory fee for the examination service is 3 base values (базовые величины). The base value is 45 Belarusian roubles from 1 January 2026 (Council of Ministers Resolution No. 651 of 20 November 2025), so the fee is 135.00 BYN in 2026 and changes whenever the base value changes. Payment is made only after Belstroytsentr decides to admit the candidate to the exam.

Which complexity classes require attestation?

Attestation is mandatory for participants in construction on objects of complexity classes K-1 to K-4, regardless of the construction method or funding source. Class K-5 objects, current-repair works and several other categories are exempt. Complexity classes are now assigned under СН 3.02.07-2020 'Объекты строительства. Классификация', which replaced СТБ 2331-2015 on 10 June 2021.

Is this question bank an official test simulation or translation?

No. The official exam is taken in Russian and its item pool is not published as a percentage blueprint. This bank is an independent English-language MCQ study adaptation covering the Belarusian Construction Code, TR 2025/013/BY, the СН/СП system, quality control and site safety that the attestation exam draws on. It is not an official translation, an authorised practice test, or a substitute for Belstroytsentr's own self-preparation question sets and rehearsal testing.
