Does the EES system work at Smilnytsia border crossing?

Yes, the Entry/Exit System (EES) is active at Smilnytsia border crossing. EES is an EU automated system for registering entry and exit of third-country nationals crossing the external borders of the Schengen Area. The system records the date, time and place of border crossing, as well as biometric data (fingerprints and facial photo).

When does shift change occur at checkpoints on the Ukrainian border?

The shift change on the Ukrainian side of the border takes place twice a day - at 8:00 a.m. and 8:00 p.m. These are regular changes that ensure the continuity of border control. It should be taken into account that during the shift change there are often delays in servicing all types of border crossings. We recommend planning your trip taking this factor into account.
