These are regular shifts that ensure continuous border control. During shift change, processing of of cars at Malhowice 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 Poland checkpoint the border-guard shift change happens at the same local times, but Poland 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_345/statistics) Detailed statistics for today and yesterday · Peak Hours · Data Comparison ## Detailed statistics for today and yesterday ### Border Queue Analysis at the Malhowice - passenger car checkpoint for Yesterday During the period 15.07.2026 from 00:00 to 23:59 at the Malhowice - 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).

One visitor reported an unusually fast 45-minute crossing on a Friday afternoon when only 5 cars were queued, showing that off-peak conditions can be far better. However, several December reviews document frustrating waits of 6.5 to 7 hours, with queues stretching roughly 500 meters. The most consistent complaint is inadequate staffing and poor coordination: visitors note only 2 operational windows, with workers described as friendly but slow and disorganized. Infrastructure problems, including malfunctioning barriers and poor queue management, are also cited. A recent June review adds a new theme: thorough and time-consuming Polish inspections. This traveler noted that Polish officers checked everything, even whether the hazard lights worked, and mentioned drivers being turned away at Christmas over a dirty engine. While tedious, the crossing was still rated positively. The approach road is generally good, with safety islands, though drivers should proceed carefully around obstacles. For travelers heading to Malhowice, the key advice is to avoid peak times, expect delays, and prepare for detailed vehicle checks on the Polish side. Border personnel remain polite and courteous, but systemic resource shortages and rigorous inspections continue to slow crossings and affect overall satisfaction. ⭐ 3.8/5 5 reviews ## User Reviews ### Reviews about the checkpoint Malhowice, 3.5 ★★★★☆ 6 reviews All Positive Negative Оксана ★★★★☆ Тормоязть поляки. . дуже довго все . Наші посміялись , віддали документи і ми вже чекали поки пройде черга . А вони перевіряють навіть чи працює аварійка 🥲. Ого, нас так на різдво завернули через грязний мотор 🤦‍♀️ Анастасія ★★★★★ Їхали в п'ятницю 12.06 десь о 17.15 по Польщі , то було всього 5 авто в черзі. Пройшли за 45 хв. Андрій ★★☆☆☆ Нижанковичі біда. Територія кордону повна. У поляків пусто. Просто тримають Ольга ★★★★☆ Вчора їхали в сторону України і мушу визнати, дорога була дуже добра (їхали в сторону Самбора через села). На дорозі багато острівців безпеки, які треба об'їжджати, і котів, тому дуже не розганяйтесь. 😅Кордон вчора проходили надзвичайно довго - в цілому 6,5 годин. Прикордонники по обидві сторони були привітними, проте працювали повільно і дуже незкоординовано. Також їх було дуже мало як на таку кількість машин (до прикладу, в Польщі працювали тільки два віконечка). Юлія ★★★★☆ Кордон класний, але в них, ще не до кінця все організовано, шлагбауми погано працюють, працівників мало! Тому і черга повільно рухаєтьсяТакож щойно там була, з Польщі в Україну проїхала приблизно за 7 годин 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 Malhowice Address: Poland, Border Crossing Malhowice GPS Coordinates: 49.69473, 22.81706 [Show on map](https://nakordoni.eu/en/maps/pl-ua#id_345) ### How to get there Malhowice border crossing is located on the border between Poland and Ukraine. ##### Nearest border checkpoints - [Medyka](https://nakordoni.eu/en/id/id_94) – 15 км - [Krosstsenko](https://nakordoni.eu/en/id/id_98) – 25.2 км - [Korchova](https://nakordoni.eu/en/id/id_90) – 35.9 км - [Budomezh](https://nakordoni.eu/en/id/id_86) – 55.5 км - [Khrebenne](https://nakordoni.eu/en/id/id_83) – 85 км ## News at this checkpoint ### [Ukraine–Poland Border Queue Forecast 06.07–12.07.2026](https://nakordoni.eu/en/news/2026-07-05/queue-prognosis-ukraine-poland-week-2026-28) 05.07.2026 ### [Ukraine–Poland Border Queue Forecast 27.06–03.07.2026](https://nakordoni.eu/en/news/2026-06-26/queue-prognosis-ukraine-poland-week-2026-27) 26.06.2026 ### [Constitution Day Border Queue Forecast — 28.06.2026](https://nakordoni.eu/en/news/2026-06-22/queue-prognosis-constitution-day-2026-06-28) 22.06.2026 ### [Ukraine–Poland Border Queue Forecast 13.06–19.06.2026](https://nakordoni.eu/en/news/2026-06-12/queue-prognosis-ukraine-poland-week-2026-25) 12.06.2026 ### [Ukraine–Poland Border Queue Forecast 06.06–12.06.2026](https://nakordoni.eu/en/news/2026-06-05/queue-prognosis-ukraine-poland-week-2026-24) 05.06.2026 ### [Corpus Christi Queue Forecast — Ukraine to Poland 04.06.2026](https://nakordoni.eu/en/news/2026-05-31/queue-prognosis-corpus-christi-ukraine-poland-2026-06-04) 31.05.2026 [All news →](https://nakordoni.eu/en/news) ### Emergency Contacts & Support **Poland Emergency Services** - [112 — universal emergency](tel:112) - [997 — police](tel:997) - [999 — ambulance](tel:999) - [998 — fire department](tel:998) **Ukraine Emergency Services** - [112 — universal emergency](tel:112) - [102 — police](tel:102) - [103 — ambulance](tel:103) - [101 — fire department](tel:101) **Roadside Assistance** - [PZM Roadside: 19-637](tel:) - [24h Assistance: 800-111-222](tel:24) **Roadside Assistance** - [Ukravtodor: 0-800-503-508 (free)](tel:0800503508) Always carry your passport and vehicle documents! ### Other border crossings Compare queues at all crossings [All queues at Poland-Ukraine border → 35](https://nakordoni.eu/en/stat/2/1) ## Useful Information for Border Crossing [Documents for border crossing →](https://nakordoni.eu/en/p/rules) [Customs rules & import limits →](https://nakordoni.eu/en/p/customs) [Green Card car insurance →](https://nakordoni.eu/en/p/green_card) [EES system — what you need to know →](https://nakordoni.eu/en/p/ees/what-is-the-entry-exit-system) [Maps & Services →](https://nakordoni.eu/en/explore) [Find Fastest Crossing →](https://nakordoni.eu/en/best-crossing) [All border crossings →](https://nakordoni.eu/en/bcp)
