These are regular shifts that ensure continuous border control. During shift change, processing of of buses at Vyshne-Nemetske typically slows for 20–60 minutes. To minimize wait, plan to cross **30+ minutes before or 60+ minutes after** the approximate shift change. Check the live queue above for current status. At the neighboring Slovakia checkpoint the border-guard shift change happens at the same local times, but Slovakia is on Central European Time — one hour behind Kyiv — so there it falls around **07:00 and 19:00 Kyiv time**. Because the two shifts overlap, the slowdown stretches into wider windows on both sides: **roughly 07:00–08:30 in the morning and 19:00–20:30 in the evening** (Kyiv time). During these intervals, processing on both sides can noticeably slow down. ## Queue Chart: Today & Yesterday ### Queue at checkpoint for the last 24 hours Real Data Increased Load [**When is the best time to go?** Load statistics by day and hour](https://nakordoni.eu/en/id/id_123/statistics) Detailed statistics for today and yesterday · Peak Hours · Data Comparison ## Detailed statistics for today and yesterday ### Border Queue Analysis at the Vyshne-Nemetske - bus checkpoint for Yesterday During the period 30.08.2026 from 00:00 to 23:59 at the Vyshne-Nemetske - bus checkpoint, the following key moments were recorded: **Morning hours (06:00 - 12:00):** No data for Morning hours (06:00 - 12:00). **Afternoon (12:00 - 18:00):** The number of vehicles during Afternoon (12:00 - 18:00).

The traveller described the crossing as "extremely slow" and reported personally standing in the queue for 9 hours, with 14 buses counted waiting ahead in the line. The tone is one of clear frustration, with no positive aspects of the crossing mentioned at all — no praise for staff, facilities, or processing organisation. The dominant theme is wait time. A 9-hour queue is far beyond what most travellers plan for, and the mention of 14 buses suggests the delay was driven by heavy bus traffic and slow per-vehicle processing rather than a one-off incident. The report was filed in the early afternoon, so the backlog had likely been building since the morning hours. Practical tips based on this experience: budget for delays of up to 9-10 hours if you arrive when bus traffic is heavy, and check live queue counts before setting out. Travelling by car rather than bus, or crossing at night or in the very early morning when coach traffic is lighter, may reduce the wait. Bring water, food, and phone power for a long stop. With only one review available, this reflects a single traveller's experience and not a verified long-term pattern. ⭐ 1.0/5 1 reviews ## User Reviews ### Reviews about the checkpoint Vyshne-Nemetske, 1.0 ★☆☆☆☆ 4 reviews All Positive Negative Наталя ★☆☆☆☆ Стоїмо на кордоні вже з 01.00 ночі Автобус Flix Bus Їжджу вже 10 років це перший раз що так довго стоїмо Це просто неповага до людей Не раджу на цей кордон їхати Ростислав ★☆☆☆☆ Надзвичайно повільно працюють стоїмо в черзі 9годин 14автобусів в черзі( Олександр ★☆☆☆☆ автобус стоит уже с пяти утра ,в переди было семь машин (в сторону Украины)словаки держат сейчас 12.20 This review(s) reflects the subjective opinion of a service user, and not the official position of NaKordoni.eu. ## Contacts & Map ## Contacts and address of checkpoint Vyshne-Nemetske Address: Košice Region, Sobrance District, Vyšne Nemecké village.
