## Šid — [Tovarnik](https://nakordoni.eu/en/bcp/tovarnyk-shid): status, key facts and a practical guide

**Current status:** An international road border crossing between Serbia (Šid) and Croatia (Tovarnik). It operates around the clock (24/7) and handles cars, buses, minibuses and trucks. Because Croatia joined the Schengen Area in 2023, checks on entry into the EU are thorough. Typical delays range from 15–30 minutes on quiet weekday nights to 2–4 hours during peak holiday periods.

Pedestrian and cycle crossing is not permitted here. For live queue figures, user check-ins and historical patterns see the live pages linked below.

### Key information

- Route: town of Šid (RS) — town of Tovarnik (HR)
- Distances: about 80 km (~1 h) from Belgrade, about 165 km (~2 h) from Zagreb
- Working hours: 24/7
- Vehicle types: cars, buses, minibuses, trucks
- Pedestrians and cyclists: not allowed
- Daily traffic: roughly 3,000–5,000 vehicles

### Queues and waiting times

Real delays when entering Croatia from Serbia vary by time of day:

- Night (22:00–06:00): 10–20 minutes
- Weekday daytime: 40–80 minutes
- Weekday evenings: 60–120 minutes
- Weekends: 90–180 minutes
- Public holidays and the July–August tourist season: up to 2–4 hours

### Tips by vehicle category

**Cars:** carry a valid passport, vehicle registration, an international driving licence and a Green Card insurance document; Schengen checks on the EU side are strict.

**Buses:** an international passenger transport licence, a passenger list and commercial transport permits for both countries are required.

**Trucks:** CMR documents, TIR declarations, customs paperwork and transport permits for both Croatia and Serbia are needed; freight often waits longer because of customs control on entry to the EU.
