These are regular shifts that ensure continuous border control. During shift change, processing of of cars at Krasnoilsk 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.
