I need to devide A4 sheet on the some parts by 65x50 drawing dotted borders to cut it after printing.
As result I need to get printed a4 with lines of cut.
How to do that and what tool to use?

65x50 does not go evenly into 297x210, so you’ll end up with margins. You can get a grid of 4x4 areas on a sheet of A4 paper (for a total of 260x200 mm). You can use any number of tool to make dotted lines – Illustrator, Photoshop, InDesign, Corel Draw, Inkscape, any of the Affinity products, etc. It’s just a matter of drawing the lines and making them dotted. A vector-based app (like Illustrator, Corel Draw or Inkscape) will probably be the easiest.– Janus Bahs JacquetJul 26, 2021 at 9:36

Thank you, could you explain how to draw dotted line and clone it in photoshop? Is there any ready solution as grid to print?– OlegJul 26, 2021 at 9:41

To draw a dotted line in Photoshop, use the Pen Tool to draw a path, then set the Stroke Options, using the Control Bar across the top of the screen.
If you know you need a series of specific sized rectangles you can create a dashed stroke rectangle and merely copy it repeatedly...
If you'd prefer to have guides for paths, you can create a New Guide Layout via the menu by choosing View > New Guide Layout and entering your specific dimensions there... then use the guide to align paths you draw.
Judging from your comment I assume you have got the Adobe CC cloud. I which case it be best to use illustrator for this.
Draw rectangle and set it to right size.
Drag & drop with alt and shift pressed to copy to the right.
Press CMD+D (or CTRL+D in windows) to repeat the copying.
Select line of boxes and copy the same way down.
Select all boxes and press CMD/CTRL + G to group
Centre using the alignment panel
And set stroke to dotted line in stroke panel
