Tatsiana Zaretskaya (Belarusian: Таццяна Зарэцкая; born 1994) is a Belarusian entrepreneur and the co-founder of the software firm Laava Tech. Zaretskaya was nominated to the Belarusian United Transitional Cabinet in September 2022, with responsibility for Finance and Economy. On 2 November 2022, she announced that she had resigned from the Cabinet as a result of weeks of threats to her family, friends, and employees. Following her resignation, independent media published investigations raising significant doubts about the viability and legitimacy of her business.
In 2024, the European Public Prosecutor's Office (EPPO) launched a criminal fraud investigation into Zaretskaya and Laava Tech, demanding the return of over €2 million in European Union subsidies.
