Nakordoni.eu provides the most up-to-date information about queues at all border crossing points between Ukraine and Poland in real-time. Our border queue monitoring service helps thousands of travelers daily plan their border crossing and save time. We track data from 9 key border checkpoints: Hrushiv — Budomezh, Krakivets — Korchova, Nyzhankovychi — Malhowice, Rava-Ruska — Khrebenne, Shehyni — Medyka, Smilnytsia — Krosstsenko, Uhryniv — Dolgobychuv, Ustyluh — Zosyn, Yagodyn — Dorohusk. Figures combine official border-service data where it is published, cameras and driver reports, and refresh as soon as new data arrives. Use our online service to choose the optimal border checkpoint and crossing time.

## When is the best time to cross the Ukraine — Poland border?

This pattern is built from 8 border crossings on this route, using 16 835 queue measurements collected over the last 60 days.

The lightest day of the week is Monday, when the queue averages 13 cars. The heaviest day is Friday, at about 32 cars — roughly 2.4 times the quiet-day level.

- Quietest windows: Monday 02:00–04:00, Tuesday 04:00–06:00, Sunday 04:00–06:00.
- Busiest windows: Thursday 16:00–18:00, Friday 10:00–12:00, Friday 14:00–16:00.
- Average across the whole week: 23 cars waiting at any given hour.

If the schedule allows any flexibility, the cheapest day to arrive is Monday, and the day to plan around is Friday. Overnight hours (00:00–06:00) run about 36% lighter than the afternoon stretch (12:00–18:00), so timing the arrival before dawn is usually the single largest saving available on this route.

Figures are rolling averages from our own queue measurements. They describe a typical week and will shift around public holidays, weather events and temporary border restrictions.
