These are regular shifts that ensure continuous border control. During shift change, processing of of cars TaxFREE (Red line) at Budomezh 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 ### Supermarkets nearby - [S Supermarket 22 km 33 min drive](https://www.google.com/maps/dir/50.09691,23.279222/49.9698982,23.0424004) - [L Lewiatan Stubno 110 32.6 km 49 min drive](https://www.google.com/maps/dir/50.09691,23.279222/49.893916,22.951081) - [S Supermarket 33.3 km 50 min drive](https://www.google.com/maps/dir/50.09691,23.279222/50.3153646,22.9585337) - [(image: Biedronka) Biedronka Biedronka (blisko) 36 km 54 min drive](https://www.google.com/maps/dir/50.09691,23.279222/49.9490032,22.8305846) - [(image: Lidl) Lidl Lwowska 116, Tomaszów Lubelski 39.2 km 59 min drive](https://www.google.com/maps/dir/50.09691,23.279222/50.43815,23.41777) [All stores on map](https://nakordoni.eu/en/shopping/supermarkets) Required Documents · green card · vehicle requirements · customs · vignette ## Required Documents ## Documents for crossing the border from the EU Information about the documents required for leaving the EU will be available here soon. ### Customs Rules: What You Can Transport ALLOWED (with limits) Alcohol (for adults 18+) - Up to 1 liter of spirits (40%+) - Up to 2 liters of wine - Up to 4 liters of beer - Or proportional combination Example: 0.5L vodka + 1L wine = within limits Tobacco products (for adults 18+) - 200 cigarettes - 100 cigarillos - 50 cigars - 250g tobacco **Package must be sealed!** Food products - Dairy products: up to 2 kg (cheese OK) - Meat/fish: up to 2 kg (canned OK, RAW NOT allowed) - Fruits/vegetables: up to 2 kg - Honey, jam: no limits Meat from non-EU countries is PROHIBITED!

A significant concern raised is that many Polish vehicles are being turned away at this checkpoint, suggesting stricter inspection standards. The reviewer's own vehicle encountered specific issues during inspection: the Ukrainian seal was heavily compressed and damaged, and bolts protruding above the hydraulic board were flagged as issues, though the reviewer notes these are design features of the vehicle itself. The reviewer implies that checkpoint staff were particularly strict about these manufacturing standards. However, the review includes a positive note: despite these issues during inspection, the vehicle has been in use for an extended period without experiencing any subsequent problems. This suggests that while the checkpoint inspection process may be rigorous and sometimes frustrating (particularly for vehicles with non-standard features), passing through doesn't result in actual vehicle damage or long-term issues. The review essentially warns other drivers, especially Polish motorists, to expect thorough technical inspections and ensure their vehicles meet all checkpoint requirements before crossing. ⭐ 3.0/5 1 reviews ## User Reviews ### Reviews about the checkpoint Budomezh, 3.0 ★★★☆☆ 1 review All Positive Negative Оксана ★★★☆☆ Завертають авто дуже багато поляки Наприклад , у нас не сподобалось : 1.
