These are regular shifts that ensure continuous border control. During shift change, processing of of cars at Tisabec 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 Hungary checkpoint the border-guard shift change happens at the same local times, but Hungary 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 Detailed statistics for today and yesterday · Peak Hours · Data Comparison ## Detailed statistics for today and yesterday ### Border Queue Analysis at the Tisabec - passenger car checkpoint for Yesterday During the period 30.08.2026 from 00:00 to 23:59 at the Tisabec - passenger car checkpoint, the following key moments were recorded: **Morning hours (06:00 - 12:00):** The number of vehicles during Morning hours (06:00 - 12:00).
