Belarus Handball Federation (Belarusian: Беларуская Фэдэрацыя гандбола, Belaruszkaja federacija handbola, BFH) is a national governing body of handball in Belarus.

In reaction to the launch of the 2022 Russian invasion of Ukraine, the European Handball Federation in February 2022 indefinitely suspended Belarusian national and club teams from competitions.[1] The International Handball Federation banned Belarus athletes and officials.[2] Referees, officials, and commission members from Belarus will not be called upon for future activities.[3]
