These are regular shifts that ensure continuous border control. During shift change, processing of of cars at Uzhhorod 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_24/statistics) Detailed statistics for today and yesterday · Peak Hours · Data Comparison ## Detailed statistics for today and yesterday ### Border Queue Analysis at the Uzhhorod - passenger car checkpoint for Yesterday During the period 16.07.2026 from 00:00 to 23:59 at the Uzhhorod - 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).

Users consistently report bottlenecks on the Slovak side, with travelers frequently stuck on the Ukrainian border awaiting Slovak processing. Customs inspections are thorough, with officers conducting detailed baggage checks; several reviews mention contraband discoveries (excess meat products, cigarettes) resulting in warnings or deportations. Peak crossing times (afternoon/evening hours) show significantly longer waits compared to early morning departures. Traveler tips from reviews: attempt crossings early morning (7 AM departures reported 5-minute processing), exercise caution with food items and cigarette quantities that may exceed allowable limits, and expect extended waits during 14:00-20:00 hours (4-6+ hour waits common). Slovak side processing uses separate vehicle lanes, potentially impacting overall speed. Buses sometimes face distinct handling compared to private vehicles, though outcomes vary. Sentiment is mixed due to some successful quick crossings, but numerous 1-3 star reviews highlighting extreme delays indicate significant frustration with inconsistent service levels. ⭐ 3.3/5 14 reviews ## User Reviews ### Reviews about the checkpoint Uzhhorod, 3.3 ★★★☆☆ 16 reviews All Positive Negative Ксенія ★★★★☆ Їхала 2 тижні тому, на сканер не пускали, але з валіз викладали все, особливо після того,як знайшли 3 куски сала у жінки, а потім ще у чоловіка сигарет,більше,ніж треба, чоловікові дали депорт, жінці попередження, автобус хотіли завернути на самий кінець, ледве впросилися, бо було багато дітей.
