## Ilok — [Bačka Palanka](https://nakordoni.eu/en/bcp/bachka-palanka-ilok) Border Crossing

**Status:** International road border crossing between Croatia and Serbia, spanning the Danube between the town of Ilok (Croatia) and Bačka [Palanka](https://nakordoni.eu/en/bcp/mayaky-udobne-palanka) (Serbia). It operates around the clock, 24/7.

**Note:** Croatia has been part of the Schengen Area since 2023, while Serbia is outside the EU and Schengen, so full passport and customs control applies in both directions.
