it's just a horror that the toilets are all closed here, go wherever you want 17th century passage with cargo from three days to a week the post office works until 15:00 there is nowhere to pay on weekends, plus a commission from the head of 2000 to 4000 tenge, while there is no check for the commission and there is no terminal only cash ATM 20km from here.
They passed from Kazakhstan. Passengers walk, both borders were crossed in 15 minutes. Toilets, cafes, waiting area. Cars are longer, they are released quickly for no more than 20 minutes, but in Uzbekistan you spend about an hour longer on all the windows, papers and fees. Although I won't say anything bad about the border guards, they do everything clearly. It's just the way the system is. In general, we spent about 1.5 hours on everything. There are almost no cars. There are a lot of trucks.
Kazakh border guards and Customs officers at this border have completely lost the coast, it is not realistic to pass without money. They charge $100 from trucks and $80 from passenger cars. Passengers are kicked out of the gate after passport control, and 4e are not allowed to leave the border without paying money. They require customs declaration from passenger cars. It is unclear where the leadership of the Republic of Kazakhstan is looking.
There is no such mess of rudeness and extortion on other borders of the Republic of Kazakhstan!
