When entering Belarus, your passport and visa will be checked and stamped. Make sure you have not only your visa, but also the special insurance you need when going to Belarus. If your current insurance doesn't cover Belarus, you're most likely to get this insurance with your visa. It costs around €7 for two weeks.
 
The border police on the Ukrainian side is very strict and they will search not only your bag but also check your clothes and even your socks upon leaving the country, so make sure you '''do not''' have anything illegal, like drugs, with you. The Belarussian guards won't bother you that much. They probably will only give you the stamp and check your visa.
 
 
 
After the border check the road continues to [[Gomel]] and there is more than enough room to start thumbing right after the border.
