Everything would be fine, and the staff communicate politely and the inspection procedure itself is fast, but no one monitors the queue. The inspection was completed in 3 minutes, and there were 1.5 hours in line.
There are 2 queues, one for trucks, the other for cars, I do not know what is there for trucks, but at first the queue stood in 2 rows, then the number of rows increased to 4!!! It's just that the "smartest" and impatient drivers drove around the entire queue and wedged in just before the inspection point. After they were crammed into as many as 4 rows, some still continued to fart and drove along the way for trucks, and then wedged into 4 rows of cars closer to the beginning of their studies. If it weren't for the chaos with the queue, everyone would have passed the inspection in 30-35 minutes, and so, someone passed in 10 minutes, and someone stood for 2 hours. This is not right.
As such, there is no longer a customs post. There is a checkpoint Veselaya Voznesenka. They control the passage to the new territory and the return from the new territory. When we were driving towards Mariupol, the time took 1 minute to pass. On the way back 1.5 hours due to the large number of cars . The inspection and verification of documents took 10 minutes. So you can go safely.
It took an hour and a half to travel between the DPR and the Rostov region. On 07/9.24, the heat was 35 degrees Celsius. The customs officers were polite, but I did not expect that I would take so long on a weekday. When I went to Melitopol a month before and crossed the "border", there was no queue, showed my passport from the car and drove on
Hello everyone We drove there in a passenger car with Russian license plates in early September, the heat was wild.. the air conditioner went down the day before on the way from Crimea. We drove up to the first post, there was a very long queue, when we got to the first people in uniform, I asked that we and a disabled child be allowed to somehow out of line. As a result, we drove in a lane where the engine was faster than in others, as it seemed to me. At the inspection itself, the inspector, after checking the documents and questioning, very quickly examined the car and things and we drove off. We spent about an hour and a half of time. Judging by the number of cars, it's fast. Thanks for the work guys!
It was called customs for a reason. On the part of Rostov-on-Don, I want to put 5 stars, but on the part of Mariupol, it's just trash. There is a queue at three forks at almost any time of the day, especially closer to the weekend. Although compared to two months earlier, the queue is twice as fast. But nevertheless, this is Russia, as we thought, But no, so far only the name.
The checkpoint cannot be photographed. It is necessary for the security of new regions. If your passport has been taken away for verification, wait. But not for very long, no more than an hour. Then go ahead and demand. It is quite possible that the request has been completed for you, but you have already been forgotten)))
The organization of work is poor. The staff is working perfectly. But what can you do on the busiest route to Novorossiya if you have ONE post for trucks, one for buses and TWO posts for cars? There is a two-lane access road, two 90-degree turns in front of the posts. There are several such posts to be made on this road. A traffic jam of trucks for 10 km in each direction..
The Internet is available only on Russian territory. I recommend everyone to look for route points in ADVANCE, replenish money on the phone and enable roaming. My Megaphone was working. Others don't know, It's not an advertisement, just a fact.
It will be difficult to find a point of sale of a local operator without a navigator.
On February 22, a 3-hour fast took place in Novorossiya, and 6 hours back.
But the road to Mariupol is excellent.
They are cheerfully inspecting, but I would like more information at the entrance in order to understand in advance where to run and what to do.
The staff is attentive and friendly.
Excellent customs. Good access, and the only checkpoint with a new road surface without pits and bumps. Passport control is generally a fire. There is a Rosneft gas station almost in front of the checkpoint.
I went to Mariupol twice and both times I was jostled in line for Rostov. The first time was pushed in early December 2022 for 19 hours, the second time was pushed in June 23 for 7 hours. I left Mariupol empty in a five-ton truck. I could have driven on the concrete because I was empty, but because of the terrible condition of the concrete, I had to jostle in line with the loaded ones. In addition to everything, the customs checkpoint was closed, some work was carried out, which increased downtime. Traffic police inspectors were still working at the exit from customs, they checked all the docks, for the car, for authenticity, waybill, diagnostic card, insurance. And this is after 12 hours of jostling. When the traffic police inspector stopped me, I wanted to hit him. In general, this is not customs, but a test of your nerves. And in the country they say that we have everything in Russia for the people and their benefits. I give you 2 stars, and that's a lot.
The border crossing, to drive to Mariupol quickly, showed my passport and drove, here's the turn back to inspect the car bags with things..an hour or two for all the prowse,
A terrible place morally.We were driving from Crimea, there was confusion at the entrance. we stood for almost an hour and a half, the inspection was not organized qualitatively: the guys were overloaded, people were freaking out very hot. And when leaving after the inspection, I couldn't figure out where to actually go , the navigator was going crazy, there are no pointers as such, but I really hope that the situation will change for the better in the near future
Now it is very convenient to leave the Russian Federation, it takes literally a second. And the entrance has been unloaded, there are no such queues anymore.
In the extreme transition on May 2-3, 2023, everything is just super, without queues, from the word at all.
No one knows what happened, or does not say, and I do not want to remember what happened before that, in March 2023 I went to the Rostov region for 10 and a half hours, and this was in turn by passenger transport, and trucks stood at the exit for 10 km. By the way, the road was also repaired, but only miracles...
The road at checkpoints is just a mess. Just terrible queues and unrealistically long waiting times for travel! At the checkpoint, you either have to be super arrogant and climb on the oncoming lane to the very beginning of the queue, which is not beautiful and creates an even longer waiting time for the rest, or become like everyone else in the queue and spend 10 hours passing the point. Very small and long cross-country. There are no conditions at all for people crossing on foot. They are forced to walk along the dead roads, making their way between cars. There are no pedestrian sidewalks. There is normal asphalt to the checkpoint and immediately after in the DPR there is new asphalt and there is no road at all between.
In my subjective opinion, there should be three checkpoint lines at the crossing point. Civilian, cargo, and military (including law enforcement agencies). While cars are driving to the entrance to the territory in the oncoming lane, on the side of the road. There are contractual arrangements. The military and security forces are allowed to pass without waiting in line. But inside there is one queue for everyone. There is less order in the territory itself. I stood there for four hours.
The customs inspection of the car took place in a pit between the wheels of the car, 3 m deep. At the same time, they were forced to take all the things out of the trunk and carry them to the rengen.
With any careless movement, bags from the trunk fly into this pit. Or the person himself may fall there and be injured. The pit is not covered with boards. It looks like the people working there don't have any brains at all.
I was traveling on May 8 with humanitarian aid towards Kakhovka. From the Rostov region, they passed the inspection in 15 minutes. I drove back to the first checkpoint from Mariupol at 18.00, an unfortunate 300 meters remained to the place of inspection, and here all the circles of hell began! Cars climbed from all sides in 5 rows, despite the traffic pattern indicated at the entrance, the disgusting organization of entrances, the roads are broken and this is CUSTOMS!!! AS A RESULT, BROKEN NERVES AND THE TIME OF DEPARTURE FROM CUSTOMS AT 22.00 !!!
Brothers, in this case it is better not to write anything... Because if there are a lot of them, then use obscenities. The customs on the part of the DPR is a complete mess. I stood in line from 2 to 10 hours. Because someone is standing in line, and someone is just driving along the oncoming lane. And nobody gives a damn about it! Because no one from the border guards is watching this. There are no fences, the road is broken, the fittings just stick out in different directions. And there is one lane for departure to Russia, on which trucks and cars are trying to fit.
There were two times, the first one passed quickly, the second time there were a lot of trucks and cars, I had to stand. I hope that order will be restored over time, judging by the construction there will be more rows and less time for travel!
Perhaps I went through all the points of the DPR-LPR, but this one is the bottom! The queue is huge, for about 4 hours. There is no organization, employees do not regulate traffic in any way. At the point itself, like sleepy flies, they are in no hurry, although there are frankly few employees for inspection and verification. In other words, I will only come here if absolutely necessary
There is always one person at the computer, and two or more working computers from two or three lanes go to this one until everyone is brought into the computer, so a queue of workers is formed, it is necessary to add if the staff is comet, then where are the employees, especially at night and in the daytime, too, the same thing
The guys work competently and quickly. No matter what anyone says.pits, debris, fittings.... The war is on, guys! Only the military pass through without a queue. Everything will get better soon, just be patient.
I wouldn 't put even one star , but you can 't write a review . Mountains of garbage, dirty, not cleaned toilets and 6 hours of waiting ..The drivers' completely boorish attitude towards each other. There is zero security, so many cars have been assembled that if something had flown there... everyone would have stayed there, on one side a fence with a thorn, on the other in several rows the thorn itself.
I would put not a single star at passport control, there is always one person, although there are many windows, the border guard conducts the inspection alone, a bunch of cars do not have time, and they do not hurry, they say the day has passed and okay, there will be no more salary if we skip more cars, the roads are a separate concrete road cars get stuck, punch tanks break bumpers and the entire management of the border crossing everything equal to
The capacity of passenger transport and buses is poorly organized. Trucks are moving in the general flow. Although a separate inspection post has been organized for them. As it has been since 1994, so it remains. Passenger transport has been standing for 6 hours or more and continues to stand.

The reconstruction work is almost completed. The time for passing the control was reduced to 20 minutes during rush hour for passenger cars. Overall, it's cool. We are waiting for this post to turn into a pure formality.
Checkpoints were held for about an hour and a half in the direction of Mariupol. There were several characters who climbed without waiting in line. The inspection itself was quick. The staff is experienced and knows their job. It would be faster to make repairs and everything else so that quickly and without queues.
I have been standing in a traffic jam between Samsonovo and the post for the third day already. Today I have advanced 10 km maximum. It's good that I have a Ukrainian SIM card and was able to call home. Many people do not have this opportunity. Many drivers are searched by radio. We hardly sleep. Food and diesel fuel are running out. Why we are standing is unknown. The traffic jam is tolerable at the post itself. Nobody cares about us. We're not people, we're drivers.
People work quickly and accurately.
But there are very long queues. We need to increase the number of people, the capacity of terminals, and expand roads. The roads are broken, fittings are sticking out everywhere.
There is something to work on
Everything is fine in the direction of Mariupol, but from there, it's tough. Eternal killimktrov queues, the entrance to the customs is completely killed. If you drive from Mariupol in a convoy, it's a quiet horror. The concrete is so much killed that those on low-profile wheels or on a low platform sit on their bellies, break tanks or just hang on the slabs. In general, everything is for "people".
