Belarus's largest medal haul came at the 2004 Summer Games, with a total of 29, of which 10 gold.^[3]

In 2022, in response to the country's participation in the Russian invasion of Ukraine, as well its treatment of Belarusian athletes, Belarus was suspended from the Paralympic Games.^[4]^[5]^[6] On 2 March 2022, the IPC originally declared that Belarusian athletes would be able to compete as neutral athletes under the designation Paralympic Neutral Athletes,^[7]^[8] however their decision was reversed the following day and the athletes were banned from competing.^[9]

On 29 September 2023, IPC decides to continue partially suspend both Belarusian and Russian NPCs for two years, with their athletes and their support personnels may participate Paralympic Games under individual and neutral capacity, remarked that this means no teams.^[10]
