When to Cross Ukraine-Poland Border Without Queues: Three Scenarios

Scenario 1: Leaving Ukraine (Dec 22–28)

If you're traveling to Poland or other EU countries before Christmas (Dec 22–23) or prefer days after, the optimal dates are December 27, 28, 29. Most people have already reached their destinations, so border queues drop to 90–120 minutes.

Avoid: December 22, 23, 24, 25. This is the peak pre-holiday period when hundreds of thousands travel simultaneously.
Tip: If you must travel on pre-holiday days, go at night (23:00–06:00) — wait time drops from 3–4 hours to 15–30 minutes.

Scenario 2: Returning to Ukraine (Dec 31 – Jan 5)

This is the most critical period for entering Ukraine. December 31 and January 1 are official holidays, but traffic remains at record levels as people return home after celebrating abroad. Wait times can reach 180–420 minutes.

Best return days: January 2–5. After New Year, most people stay with relatives, so queues shrink. On January 3–5, wait times are around 90 minutes.
Tip: If possible, delay your return by 2–3 days after celebrations. Alternative — travel on the night of Dec 31 to Jan 1 (23:00–06:00), when queues are minimal even on peak dates.

Scenario 3: Using Alternative Checkpoints

If main checkpoints (Shehyni, Krakovets, Rava-Ruska) are overloaded, consider alternative crossings:

Nyzhankovychi
(Lviv → Dukla, Poland)
Usually less busy
Smilnytsia
(Ivano-Frankivsk → Krynica, Poland)
Rarely used

These checkpoints have longer routes but can reduce total travel time when main crossings have critical queues.

What Causes Record Queues During Christmas and New Year

Queues form at the Ukraine-EU border during December 22, 2025 – January 7, 2026 due to several factors:

1

Mass Return of Ukrainians Working Abroad

Over 100,000 Ukrainians working in Poland, Czech Republic, Slovakia, and Germany return home for 2–3 weeks of family celebration. This creates a one-time stress on checkpoints operating at capacity limits.

2

Students at Foreign Educational Institutions

Thousands of students pause their studies for the holiday break and return to Ukraine. According to border guard data, pre-holiday traffic includes a significant share of student youth.

3

Relatives from Abroad Visiting Ukraine

Conversely, some families from the European diaspora come to Ukraine for celebrations, increasing entry traffic. Border guard forecasts show 15,000 more people entering than leaving.

4

New EU EES Standard

From October 2025, EU borders implement the EES biometric registration system (Entry/Exit System), adding 1–2 minutes per person to processing time. This indirectly affects the entire checkpoint chain.

5

Limited Checkpoint Capacity

Even with enhanced staffing, 16 checkpoints on the Ukraine-Poland border simply cannot process 155,000+ people per day without queues. This is the physical infrastructure limit.

FAQ

Frequently Asked Questions

Answers to the most popular questions about crossing the border during holidays

Holiday Queue Timing

Shortest queues are nights from 23:00 to 06:00 and early morning (06:00–09:00). On Christmas (Dec 24-25), expect maximum queues from 10:00 to 20:00. Travel at night — wait time drops from 3-4 hours to 15-30 minutes.
Christmas (Dec 24-25): Queues 90-180 minutes. Fewer people travel early (before 06:00).
New Year (Dec 31-Jan 1): Even longer queues — up to 180+ minutes. Travel 2-3 days earlier or later.
Dec 27-30 is a "dead zone" between two celebration peaks. Most people have already crossed before Christmas or are waiting until New Year. Expect only 10-30 minutes — ideal travel time.
Yes, Dec 24-25 are the busiest days for exit. These are Christmas Eve and Christmas Day with maximum traffic. Queues are expected to reach 90-180 minutes during the day. To minimize waiting, travel at night (23:00-06:00) when traffic drops by 80%. Or postpone your trip to Dec 27-28 when most people have already reached their destinations. For trucks, the situation is critical — 37-hour waits have been recorded on Dec 22-24.
The best days to return are Jan 2-5. On Jan 1 and Dec 31, queues for entry to Ukraine reach peak values (180-420 minutes) as people rush home after celebrations. After official holidays, most guests stay with relatives for a few days, reducing traffic by half to 90-120 minutes. If you must travel Dec 31-Jan 1, go at night (23:00-06:00) — even on peak dates, queues are minimal then.
Main checkpoints (Shehyni, Krakovets, Rava-Ruska) handle up to 50% of all border traffic. With critical queues, consider alternatives: Nyzhankovychi (Lviv → Dukla, Poland) — less busy, though 30-50km longer; Smilnytsia (Ivano-Frankivsk → Krynica, Poland) — rarely used, usually 30-60 min wait; Tereblya (Zakarpattia → Vyšné Nemecké, Slovakia). Use nakordoni.eu to check alternative crossing queues before departure.
You cannot completely avoid queues, but you can minimize them with three strategies:
1. Time optimization: Travel at night (23:00–06:00) on any date. Even on peak days (Dec 24, 31), nights are calm with 15-30 min waits.
2. Day selection: Best exit dates are Dec 27-30. Best entry dates are Jan 2-5. Wait times under 90-120 min.
3. Alternative checkpoints: If main crossings are overloaded, try Nyzhankovychi or Smilnytsia.
4. eCherha system: Some checkpoints offer electronic queue booking in advance.
Yes. From October 2025, the EU is implementing EES (Entry/Exit System) — a biometric registration system for foreigners. The transition will last until April 2026. When entering the EU (including Poland), you will need to provide biometric data (fingerprints, facial photo). This adds 1-2 minutes per person to processing time, which accumulates in large queues. Plan for 20-30% more time than usual when entering the EU. This factor is already included in our queue forecasts.

Documents & Requirements

• Passport: Biometric, valid for at least 6 months
• Vehicle registration: Original
• Green Card: Mandatory car insurance
• For men: Military ID or TCC permit
• For children: Parental consent for travel

Practical Tips

1. Travel at night: 23:00–06:00 — 15–30 min wait
2. Choose another crossing: If main one is overloaded
3. Check nakordoni.eu: Live queue data
4. Avoid Fridays and Saturdays: Busiest days
