The Republican Party ({{langx|ru|Республиканская партия|Respublikanskaya partiya}}; {{langx|be|Рэспубліканская партыя|Respublikanskaja partyja}}) was a centrist political party in Belarus. It supported the government of president Alexander Lukashenko.{{cite book | title = Białoruś − w stronę zjednoczonej Europy| pages = 127–136| chapter = UE w programach białoruskich partii politycznych| last = Lalkou| first = Ihar}}

In 2009 Ministry of Justice of the Republic of Belarus issued a written warning due to the fact that the party did not provide information to the Ministry about their activities.{{cite web |url=https://news.tut.by/politics/139976.html|title=Минюст вынес письменные предупреждения двум партиям|accessdate=2019-05-25|date=2009-06-15|publisher=Tut.By|work=BelaPAN|language=ru}}

In 2017, an opinion poll was published that said that 0.7% of Belarusians support RP, and thus as many as BPF Party.{{cite web |url=https://nn.by/?c=ar&i=200676|title=Дзяржаўныя сацыёлагі апублікавалі рэйтынг папулярнасці партый — такога вы яшчэ не бачылі|accessdate=2019-05-24|date=2017-11-18|publisher=Nasha Niva|language=be}}{{cite web |url=https://media-polesye.by/news/reyting-politicheskuh-partiy-belarusi-42871|title=Рейтинг политических партий Беларуси|accessdate=2019-05-24|date=2017-11-19|publisher=Медиа-Полесье|language=ru}}
