I walked the border in both directions for about 15 minutes. The staff on both sides of the border are polite. There were no long queues. I went there at the end of September, back in early October. I was walking.

Passage to the side of the monastery for an hour, but back 10 minutes. There are "pushers" who will help you pass without waiting in line. Judging by the price of foreign cars of customs officers, we can definitely say that customs takes a bribe. Not my words, but the words from the movie

We passed this checkpoint with our feet, quickly and without queues. On the part of the Russian Federation , the inspection is a little more serious , at least the luggage is screened . From Abkhazia , I showed everyone my passport anyway for decency and went . We didn 't go into the cafe because it was very hot .The border guards see well when people with children and let them through faster

This time it went well...on the way there, a female employee from our side was outraged that we were all going through the same window (there are 3 of us, me and the children).It's generally fast to get back. I remember with horror the passage 3 years ago!

Yes, I passed through this customs with an escort company named Albert, we quickly passed a whole bus and everything was pleasant there and back. Thanks to all the customs workers for their work, it is very pleasant for tourists when such a service.I advise you to visit ABKHAZIA the country of the soul

It's clear! Quickly! Very nice!
Of course, it didn't happen to go to the toilet, everything passed too quickly, the queue well, maybe from 3-5 people and moves faster than in auchan, so.. so 5 out of 5

There was no big queue, the staff was polite and friendly. All questions that arise are answered without problems. When leaving Abkhazia, the posts are separated.

We go through this checkpoint to Abkhazia to the tent city. Always good and friendly communication with people. The employees will explain everything and help. The only disadvantage is the pedestrian passage (drivers pass separately), you constantly drive fast by car and sit for an hour waiting for your passengers

Beauty and a good place to stay, I would not leave there. We were on our own, the road is a bit heavy, of course, but the rest is wonderful. Comfortable and not expensive. Ochamchyry is a point of rest.

Everything is very long when crossing the border!!! What's there, what's back!! This puts a big minus on everything! Just because of crossing the border, there is no desire to rest in Abkhazia again!
I'm doing everything to mechanize! This is a tin!

The people are more or less loyal, but the Russian border still spends more time checking than the Abkhazians themselves, say 5 stars only for both border posts.
Abkhazians would get 6 or even 7 for their good nature, but ours is no more than 4)
Oh yes, I almost forgot about the cheapest Duty free in the whole territory of the Russian Federation)))

If you go from Abkhazia, everything is very uninformative. And why try, if you stop in the wrong place, the cunning Abkhazian traffic cops will jump up and start making money like a sign here, now we'll write out a temporary parking lot, go into that civilian car, without identification marks. It didn't work out with us). Oh, it's so fast, they're not interested in anything from their side of the border.

The access control from the tables of Abkhazia is very fast, but from the Russian side you will have to stand in one direction or the other.But in general, this is nonsense, it's a long time that you can stay there for 15 minutes (provided that your documents are in order))

We passed the checkpoint quickly and without problems (on foot).
Minibuses should go more often, and so people go standing even in May out of season.
And so the usual bus station of the town is about one hundred thousand people.
When ordering seagulls in the buffet, it is necessary to remember about the peculiarities of local water and it is better to drink from a bottle of water.

The time of entry and exit is no more than 15 minutes, a very correct attitude to a passenger with limited mobility, a tactful survey of children. Every year, the border becomes easier to travel for vacationers.

The guys are working fast. There were no problems. But I recommend to everyone, do not get up on the first pass. There, in addition to cars, cyclists and motorcyclists are allowed to pass without waiting in line.

We drove up to the checkpoint, there is a separate lane for buses and minibuses, a separate lane for sedans on top of the order, passengers were dropped off, they go separately, drivers have PTS, rights and passport, we open the doors for inspection and trunk in turn, questions where we are going and whether there is a ban (weapons, non-licensed and exciseless goods). For a very long time, from 1h. to 3h., back from Abkhazia even longer and do not occupy the far right lane-it's on the oncoming exit where the Gaians are waiting for the sweet ones. Beeline doesn't catch it.

We love Abkhazia, having been there once, we always want to return.Passport control was carried out quickly, and professionals in their field work. In general, Abkhazia has its own atmosphere, very beautiful places, clear sea and the mesmerizing beauty of the mountains.

Crossing the border is fast enough. But after crossing the border to the side of Abkhazia, it will be problematic to go to the toilet with a child, at least with a boy. The men's room is not cleaned at all. Or maybe they do, but we didn't see it.

It was in August 2021. Everything is fast enough, walking without any problems at all, but on Fridays it's a bit long for cars, the queues are long, they were back on Monday, the cars passed in 10 minutes

We always crossed the border within an hour. I think it won't be very long. Cars are passing very slowly. It feels like they don't want to work. They create an unfavorable atmosphere themselves.
Another very big disadvantage is the toilets. Very dirty, a lot of garbage.

The border with Abkhazia and the duty-free trade zone. Duty Free has the lowest prices I've ever seen. Then compare it with Duty free at Sochi airport, you will be very surprised, everything is at least 3 times more expensive. The border guards are normal, they talk politely, they treat Russians well

Perhaps we were lucky and we crossed the border quite quickly and without delay (end of April 2022). On the Russian side, everything went slowly, but without hassle. For those who have been vacationing abroad for the first time and mostly, the external surroundings can be a little scary.

For 8 years now I have been passing the Russia-Abkhazia checkpoint, the village of Gyachripsh, the village next to the border, there is both a private sector and hotel-type housing, minimagazines where all products are in a large assortment, I have not been to the sea in this place, I rest a little further- in the village of Tsandripsh!

There are always a lot of people, but workers try to open more booths so that the queue goes faster. The service staff are always polite and kind-hearted.

Wonderful staff, pleasant, smiling, blue eyes of one of them I can't forget to this day. It's hard for them there, of course, the flow is like this, also women: in the passport they are made up and corrected by the photographer along the way))), but they pass a different hair color, tanned and like natives (I'm talking specifically about myself now). Everything passes quickly, the work is well established, the eye is trained.
From the wishes: make some kind of roof over the crossing, well, it's not Christian to stand in line there at +40.

We try to pass at night, 10-15 minutes. This is our border, the inspection is complete. The day is much longer. We got there on the way back in the afternoon, stood in traffic for 2 hours, then waited in line for an hour. The toilets are terribly dirty, but thank you for eating at all. The Abkhazian border is passing faster, the passport was checked, the trunk was opened and that's it, they didn't even get out of the car.

Very convenient and fast checkpoint. There are many windows for registration. The air conditioner is working. The queue is moving fast. You spend a minimum of time. And this is the main thing.

It's like a lottery, you can stand for half an hour and 4 hours, there are no questions for the Abkhaz side, everything is fast, but our customs officers, as an enemy of the people, are constantly inspecting, take an example from the neighboring side and do not fool tourists. I went with the children and almost compared assholes to prove that they were mine, this is too much.

Our border guards of the Russian Federation are too strict, as if people leave for Abkhazia with ends) even in EU countries there is no such strictness. The reasons are not clear…
There is generally a loyal attitude on the part of Abkhazia

The queue is huge, stuffy, small children naturally cry, many try to get through without waiting in line (((
Get ready for this challenge!
It would be possible to organize everything much better and create an electronic queue

We passed the Sochi-Abkhazia border on June 28, 2022 - we passed in 10 minutes with two children and a bunch of suitcases, there were few people. We crossed back on July 12, 2022, in general there was more pouring, but not very much, we stood in line for a while, the entire border crossing took 25-30 minutes. The staff is friendly, without much quibbling.

If you are not a deer and first dropped in and checked the rush hours of the girls of the border guards, taxi drivers, bus drivers, then you pass the border in 10 minutes. The main thing is that the dogs do not bite. (Not sarcasm) the filth there is certainly hell. They shit, but I was ashamed.

Those who cross the border by car for the first time, drop off passengers earlier and let them go for inspection, because excursions are coming and the flow of people is increasing-accordingly, this is your time. The children have questions accordingly:when was I born, where, mom's or dad's full name and when were I born, something like this

A long queue of tourists , a slow inspection of the am , you can safely spend two hours or even more there at the border , motorists do not follow the order of the queue , they all climb to the breach , you have to leave with minimal gaps

I was here this summer. Beautiful nature, new and unexplored places and of course the sea. The service lags far behind the Russian one, while the prices are quite high. There are practically no local fruits, mostly imported from Russia. I would also be careful not to take wine with my hands at the market, preferably in PAVILIONS selling from a local winery. In terms of the archetypal "devastation", they still have not recovered after the war with Georgia.

Queues are like at the mausoleum under Brezhnev. Employees in my opinion from the same time. They are rude and rude. Everyone is suspected of something that is not clear. They got to the bottom of the shape of my ears do not match the photo in the passport. An ensign with the pathos of a lieutenant general.

Unfortunately, they wouldn't let us in. The reason was that my child turned 14, but we did not have time to make a passport. I called the consulate of Abkhazia, they are not against us entering on birth certificates, they refer to Russia. And Russia is looking at Abkhazia. Lawlessness

We usually fly to the green... But the last time we got in line for 2 hours. There are a lot of tourists at 6 a.m. Tired as dogs. It is very cramped and dirty before entering the checkpoint, why this 1st inspection. What does he give besides the queue? And 3.4 people are free inside.

Usually, route 58 goes from Adler airport to the Psou checkpoint and back. Cheap, fast and convenient. Crossing the border is fast. The luggage is checked through a scan. There is nothing prohibited for import and export. On the Abkhaz side, as you exit the checkpoint, there is a staircase immediately on the left side, you need to climb and there are minibuses to any locality, the route is written right on the windshields. Well, as everywhere taxi drivers stand and impose services.

An ambiguous place, when approaching a checkpoint, sometimes it seems that you are walking past some kind of garbage dump. It takes longer to cross the Russian border, they check it more carefully, the air conditioners in the hall are stuffy. On the Abkhaz side, they check carelessly, also back. The transition time was about 30 minutes.
