Live Cameras and Border Queue Times in Europe

ETIAS (European Travel Information and Authorization System) is a new EU pre-travel authorization system launching in late 2026 for visa-exempt travelers, including Ukrainian citizens. Before traveling to Poland and other Schengen countries, Ukrainians will need to complete an online ETIAS application (approximately €7 fee, valid for 3 years). This does not replace visa-free travel but adds a security screening step.

The Entry/Exit System (EES) is a new EU automated biometric border control system that began rolling out in Poland from October 2025. EES replaces manual passport stamping with facial recognition and fingerprint scanning, automatically tracking the 90-day limit for third-country nationals in the Schengen Area. Processing time averages 42 seconds per traveler. Poland has certified full compliance at 14 air and land border crossings. EES is mandatory before ETIAS can launch in 2026.

Early morning hours (4:00-7:00 AM) and late evening (10:00 PM-midnight) typically have the shortest queues at Ukraine-Poland border crossings. Avoid weekends, public holidays, summer months (June-August), and the week before major holidays when traffic peaks. Weekdays (Tuesday-Thursday) generally have lighter traffic than Mondays and Fridays. Nakordoni.eu provides historical queue data and AI-powered forecasts showing patterns by hour, day of week, and season.

Ukraine-Moldova border crossings typically have minimal queues, usually under 1 hour wait time. Main checkpoints include Mamalyga-Kryva, Mohyliv-Podilskyi-Otach, Kuchurhan-Pervomaisc, and Porubne-Siret. Ukrainian citizens can enter Moldova visa-free for up to 90 days within any 180-day period. Required documents include valid passport, driver's license (if driving), vehicle registration, Green Card insurance, mandatory technical inspection certificate (required from 2025), and UA sticker.

Use our interactive map or the "Top Checkpoints" table on the homepage. Pay attention not only to the number of cars but also to the dynamics (up/down arrows next to numbers) to avoid arriving during shift changes (08:00/20:00) when queues can spike.

Also consider travel time to the checkpoint — sometimes a farther crossing with a shorter queue is the faster option.
