People wait for the car for 8-10 hours. There is no normal convenience for those waiting. They check everything on the car, down to every little detail.
A terrible border. At 3-45 I drove up from Uzbekistan. I drove off-road for 14 hours from Khiva. On a good road, as on a grater, without toilets and it is possible to get out "behind a tree". Then 4 hours of waiting in line. They started it at 8, then I just sat in the car for another 4 hours, without toilets!!! This is a mockery of people!!!!!!!,
Where are the heads of this border post looking???? disrespect for tourists and residents of their country. disgusting! Choose other points, or better yet, fly here by plane directly to the tourist destination. The roads are hellish all over the country. Uzbekistan is NOT suitable for car tourism!!!!
I'm going with children from Russia to Uzbekistan to visit , we sit in line for more than 8 hours, children cry, in addition, there is not even a toilet for those crossing the border for free, everything is paid, money is in the car, and the car is outside the gate that is not allowed, I'm sitting with headaches, a complete mess!!!! The plan was to arrive at night while there is no sun and heat, but because of this mess we will have to drive in the heat for the rest of the day.
I give you an example, other customs offices in Kazakhstan or in Russia passed through and everything was calm and without problems, everything was in order and people did not climb out of line. I am very disappointed with the Uzbek customs. I hope this will be corrected, because you torment not only people but also small children and the sick!!!!!!
Hello dear gentlemen, there is a very bad place here, there is a lot of corruption, all employees want money without money, you can't go anywhere, especially by car if someone wants to go to Uzbekistan, it's better to cross each other's borders, I don't advise anyone to check the Taghen checkpoint
There doesn't seem to be anything to complain about, but we stood for a very long time from Kazakhstan for 18 hours, it's just that the game is not my country, but it's a pity for the citizens who meet with this every time.
My route is Stavropol, Astrakhan, Atyrau, Beineu, Kungrad. In 2022, he went to Uzbekistan. After customs there was no road to Atyrau for more than 380 km. Only it was possible to drive a tank. I drove this stretch of road myself on a grant in 10 hours, my speed is 20. 30. 40 km/h. After Atyrau to Beineu the road is good. There are minuses and pluses at customs. Pros the guys are young, nimble to do their work with a bang. Cons of cars there are a lot of queues, you can even get stuck in queues for several days. The reason I think is Uzbeks . They load the car for a full look at the car, it becomes a pity for them on the roof that they just don't load the old refrigerator, washing machine, bicycles, etc. they take a lot of time. The most interesting will begin after you have entered the territory of Uzbekistan. The roads look like after the bombing. This is almost before Kyrykkyz, after the norms. In the city of Kungrad, too, the road is so-so and the same is khojaly. This is the GREAT SILK ROAD. The road in such a state is a disgrace for the country. Where does the money go fines and taxes are so huge and there is no road.
In 2023, I still went along this route. The road to Atyrau has been made more than half of the road in a year, where it has not been done yet, at least sprinkled with soil, you can go 60, 70 km / h.
In Uzbekistan, the condition of the road is like last year's ATO and it has become even worse
We were traveling from Uzbekistan, everything is well organized, they cross the border on foot, smoothly flowing from Uzbekistan to Kazakhstan. There are not many cars. The passengers passed in about half an hour, the car in about an hour. It's not very long. Inspection according to the regulations. No one asks for anything extra. But there are few cars for only one simple reason. About 250 km is a dead road and of these 250 km -100 km there is no road. And this is not a figure of speech. This is not a primer and not asphalt and not a grader, it is not possible to drive. Heavy trucks spend the night in the middle of the road, because it cannot be overcome in one day. There is a primer running parallel to the field, there is a lot of dust, but this is the only chance to drive at least 40 km / h. Many people have no options but to take this road, it is the only way from east Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan. We drove 250 without loss in 6 hours.
Terrible post!!! For several hours, we figured out why the car was not registered at the entrance by customs, fraudulently, retroactively, registered without our presence... After that, it began: they found two fines (let me remind you, signs about the beginning of the settlement, it was sooo rare to meet, many drivers noticed this, guided by the navigator when you need to drop the speed, respectively, it is impossible to adjust the speed in seconds, and the cameras were hung right at the beginning of the settlement), demanded to pay with what money, where they are to get it, Utkir Usmonovich Abdumurodov refused to understand, when asked whether to go stealing in the border area, he replied, they say it's your business!!! The attitude towards people sucks, pay and that's it, and you won't pay, we'll delay, at the same time, the seals are worth crossing the border!!! They printed out a sheet from the cameras, where it says that there are 10 days to appeal, 60 days to pay, but Abdumurodov Utkir Usmonovich also ignores (he has his own laws)!!! I'll sign a contract with the traffic police, keep the fines in half, otherwise I won't explain the situation, mandatory payment on the spot!!!
Hello to all those who pass through the tazhen checkpoint, I do not advise you to stop by like that, some gypsies here are border guards like beggars, they have their own rate, they do not care about your documents, they paid, they did not pay, they are detained in general by the Kazakh border guards of the FSB
I can't complain this year (2022). We went there and back faster compared to 2019. But I think we were just lucky. Minus one is that there is no separate lane for tourists. Everything goes in order. And this is a tin, since the locals take all the trash home by the mountains. It all needs to be checked. So if you want to come to Uzbekistan. Be patient and have food. You can stand there for a very long time.
The road is very bad starting from Kungrad.There is only one memory left of the asphalt, solid holes in the asphalt, there is no infrastructure.It is a shame for our state, it is the only highway connecting the north of Uzbekistan with Kazakhstan and Russia.I drove there in 2019, maybe everything was repaired.
Terrible queues. The inspection is at the highest level. Well done! The border is locked. A fly won't get through. Security is at a high level. There are no bribes at all!
Everything is fine, the employees are very polite to people, do not ask for money and quickly issue documents.
I am satisfied with how many times I drove, there were no problems, thanks to the employees
There is no road to Nux, it's just a nightmare where you can drive in two hours, we drove for nine hours and at the border the guys are very polite, but the road needs to be made

Good transition, they work fast. But there is no road at all on the Uzbek side from the railway station!!! The length of the site is about 100 kilometers. Then it 's better .
Kazakhs are rude. Uzbeks are like nothing, but for a very long time! Well, this is the case everywhere in Uzbekistan. The average time to cross the border is from 9 to 36 hours. However, as a legal entity. It's faster for private companies. But it's still a long time. I crossed the border 4 times, in November 2019 and January 2020. I can't even imagine what's going on there in the summer!

Extortion for alleged disinfection, they make you pay for sure, but they don't do anything. Everyone is dragging their feet for a very long time, they are working slowly! Border guards openly charge drivers for money, otherwise they won't let them in!
I do not advise you to be very rude on the part of the staff, I do not work long queues on purpose to delay the time so that we ourselves offer a bribe
