This is the 3rd time we have crossed the border by car at this checkpoint. Previously, it was attracted by the fact that there are no long queues, usually 2-3 cars. The staff is friendly, if there are grounds and the terms of stay are met, then everything is normal.
BUT when we went on 04/03/2021, we were shocked by what was happening... We passed the Russian border in 1 hour and arrived at 20.00 at the Ukrainian border. what we saw was a queue of about 20 cars in Russian rooms (Russians and Moldovans were not allowed to pass, some checks have been carried out since April 1), they pass quickly in Ukrainian rooms and cars did not wait long. In general, our turn came at 6 a.m. 04.04.21 (10 hours of waiting, there is nothing there on neutral except a trash can, to drink tea or have a snack only if you have something with you). They launched us at the Ukrainian border at 6.00, and waited another 1 hour for the people who arrived by bus ahead of us to complete the registration. At 7 a.m., the husband (gr.rf) was taken away to check documents and for the sake of having a conversation with him for 20 minutes and looked at the documents, they held him for 6 hours!!!, and only then took everyone out of the car to check documents at passport control. Because in the past 180 days there was an excess of being on the ter.Ukr, they turned us around and gave us a written refusal (our plug is here, we miscalculated in days), but the fact itself - waiting and passing one border is a lot of wasted time and nerves.
If all the documents are in order, it is better to find out in advance what is necessary to cross the border (up-to-date information can be found on the website polis812.ru or by contacting the checkpoint directly by phone)the staff is friendly, they work quickly and there are no difficulties.
If this is a departure from Belarus to Ukraine, then everything is quite ambiguous here. First of all, Ukraine passes through itself only transit (3 days) and then with paper insurance against covid. And then the robbery begins in Belarus, crossing the border. There are wooden booths in front of the Belarusian-Ukrainian border, allegedly Belarusian banking points (it seems 3 along the road, 1 at the gas station and 2 in a building on the territory of the border customs building). And they all sell fake insurance certificates at prices that are sucked out of their fingers. Such lawlessness and mockery of the population as in Belarus, as well as in Russia, still need to be searched. Well, the Ukrainian border service removes the fingers of the right hand from all those entering (obviously to check the Donbass past - and suddenly the person entering is left-handed. Then it's a puncture), and if you are not in the database (the check takes from 2 to 5 minutes), he lets you into his territory. Well, in general, something like that.
Roulette. Sometimes you can drive quickly and comfortably, although you will have to empty the trunk (they really like to look at the spare wheel). Sometimes you can get up for 4-5 hours. It all depends on how suspicious you are. This time, my car was driven for an X-ray, I stood in line with huge trucks, looking for hidden cavities for transporting contraband.. Minus 5 hours of life.
I will definitely write a review about the customs officers of this checkpoint. Horror, corruption is just flourishing. But I forgot the full name of these employees. I will be there one of these days and I will definitely find out who these corrupt officials are. Wait for feedback!
In general, everything is comfortable. The only disadvantage is the border guards at the entrance to Ukraine, they require numbers to buy for the program from their own sent to neutral at a price of 1000 rubles per SIM card. There is no choice, you have to take it, otherwise they won't let you in. And then everything is perfect, as if there are different services.
It's the same as always. For a little money, they stop being biased against Russians and not only. 15.09 we entered Ukraine in 30 minutes. 22.09 3 hours with a little time to leave Ukraine.
Everything is fine, the Ukrainian border guards are the most pleasant people in the world, the Russian ones are also very friendly, despite the fact that they have to work in an icy room on the street in connection with covid(
Well, guys, this is the border, everything is slow and dull, it will do for the border. If you assume at least some minor difficulties in the transition, be sure that these are significant difficulties, prepare everything you need in advance. Remember that there are two outcomes at the border: you were missed, you were not missed, the middle, like you were missed but reluctantly, no. Remember that Russians may be stopped at the Russian border when leaving Ukraine, check this in advance with the authorized bodies. Good luck!
It's just some TRASH. 🤦♂️🤦♂️🤦♂️ The queues are frenzied, there are no conditions for people, children, the elderly. 01.07.21 It took 16 hours to cross the border from Russia to Ukraine. This is a nightmare! 🙅♂️🤦♂️🤷♂️
We completed all the admission procedures in 30 minutes. The border guards, customs officers and security guards treated us as Russian citizens very politely. Representatives of the SBU asked several questions such as where from and where you are going, how the citizens of Ukraine treated us, where we work and that's it. All customs procedures were carried out very quickly, even the suitcases were not opened. In my opinion, it is very democratic. We helped with the paperwork. The point itself is well equipped, the places of inspection are well thought out. My wife and I have only positive feedback.
I think you don't need to write too much!!! Money money money!
I was going to my brother's funeral, I explained to them! In response, it will cost 5,000 rubles to drive fast, they told me!
He said that they had no conscience, they felt sorry for me and my mother, who had no face! Okay, 2500 and we're going through! I agreed
As a result, they held it for 3 hours!!!!!!!
Pigs 🐖 🐷
Thank you very much to the entire shift that worked on 07/11/2020.Especially the customs officers !!!You are real men!!May your mothers, wives and children be proud of you!!I only felt a human attitude when crossing the border in this place!Oksana.A mother with many children.
A terrible place, like all other PP between Russia and Ukraine, huge queues, everything overgrown with corruption, no toilets or normal conditions, it's disgusting to drive through
I stood at the border for 17 hours, and when I was driving back, I stood for 10 hours, they let me through unrealistically slowly: one bus in 2 hours, the Ukrainian numbers were on the bus.
We crossed the border from Ukraine to the Russian Federation using Russian numbers, Russian citizens, both posts quickly and without problems!!! 03.12.21g
The Russian side does not work at all, the X-ray breaks down every now and then, because of it and the kaleyka, we stand for more than a day, but we have not yet left the net, the Russian side does not let us in, the X-ray will not be repaired in any way
They cross the border through this checkpoint several times a year, by private car. The staff is polite. The inspection and paperwork are carried out quickly. There is no need to run between the trailers, they do everything themselves. If there is no queue, then everything takes no more than half an hour.
An absolutely incomprehensible decision to close the passage for pedestrians. As long as there is no flow of people, you can talk to employees normally and they treat you like a human being. But the attitude of the "camels" is something.
Border guards at the Bachevsk checkpoint, at the entrance from Russia to .....t loot, from the gr. RF and from citizens with dual citizenship, despite the fact that they are traveling in transit through Ukraine. Very unpleasant!!! At first... into the soul of a person, and then more money. Stop extorting b...o under the pretext of "a martial law in Ukraine" and Russian citizens are "PROHIBITED" from entering.
Well done guys, both border guards and customs. Calmly, clearly, without delay... They did not stand in line for cars from Ukraine, whose passengers must fill out migration forms... Thank you... Although it would be better if there were no such borders...
Everything is fine. I prepared a certificate for Covid-19 in advance, the Ukrainian SIM card was in stock, I paid 600 rubles. for the insurance and that's it.
At this point, the attitude towards Russian citizens in Ukraine is SIGNIFICANTLY and MUCH BETTER than in Russia... The Ukrainian point is one hour, the Russian one is two and a half.... With the same number of cars. But they stripped me almost to the goal...
The Ukrainian side is working quickly and accurately. There are no delays. According to the passport of the Russian Federation, entry and exit without problems. Fingerprints are scanned at the entrance (as in Europe). The Russian side is working three times slower on the adjacent Three-board.
The race works in the legal field, which cannot be said about the opposite side until you give a bribe, they will be murdering, but there are polite border guards, but not customs
Great! I didn't have any problems with this international pass. That the Ukrainian side and the Russian side are friendly and respectful people . It's not the first time I've been driving across this border and I've never had any problems at this border!
Cool cordon))) If you pay the dough
For 2000 rubles, the border guards themselves filled out the migration card and for another 6 thousand (there was a queue of 10 cars), they dissolved this queue))) I drove in 15 minutes. They liked Ukraine very much and they love Russians very much.
