List of Catholic dioceses in Belarus

The Roman Catholic Church in Belarus, united in the Episcopal Conference of Belarus, a Slavic ex-Soviet country in Eastern Europe, is presently only composed of one Latin ecclesiastical province, comprising the Metropolitan of Minsk-Mohilev and his three Suffragan dioceses.

There are no Eastern Catholic, pre-diocesan or other exempt jurisdictions.

There is an Apostolic Nunciature to Belarus as papal diplomatic representation (embassy-level) in the national capital Minsk.
