List of urban-type settlements in Belarus

Urban-type settlements are a type of populated place in Belarus.

Overview
According to a 1998 law of the Republic of Belarus, there are three categories of urban-type settlements in Belarus:


 * Urban settlements (гарадскія пасёлкі; городские посёлки): with population over 2,000, industrial enterprises and developed residential infrastructure
 * Resort settlements (курортныя пасёлкі; курортные посёлки, resort towns): with population of at least 2,000, sanatoriums, resorts or other health recuperation establishments, and developed residential infrastructure
 * Worker settlements (рабочыя пасёлкі; рабочие посёлки): with population at least 500, servicing industrial enterprises, construction sites, railroad stations, electric stations, or other industrial objects.

The notion of urban-type settlement is inherited from the period of the Byelorussian SSR within the Soviet Union. Before the Soviet era, many modern urban settlements in Belarus were classified as miastechka/miasteczko ("market town").
