Customs is still under repair, it's a long way to go, and so all the employees of both our state and the neighboring one are very polite. But, you pass for a long time on our side, you pass very quickly on the Uzbek side. That's what we wanted on our side. And so everything is Great.
You can write a lot.
But I won't.
If you have traveled the route to this customs office in 3,500 or even 5,000 kilometers.
You can handle the rest, traveler.
The most important thing is patience and self-control.
Everything was fine on the road, but only one minus was not said that the dog would run in the cabin where my children were sitting and, accordingly, there were children's things and toys.
Life is in full swing, but it was uncomfortable when we had the most complete shit on our side, everything is beautiful abroad.I liked the politeness of our border guards, but the Uzbek side is arrogant.
There is a huge queue in the direction of Tashkent, and so the border guards are great guys, at the Uzbek customs 200,000 for tinting for some reason they don't seem to take traffic police-I don't understand what kind of fright😆
Construction work has been underway for many years. This is why the already terrible crossing of the land border is sometimes delayed for several hours. The situation is slightly corrected by the commissioning of automatic passport scanning points, but they are not functional for all countries and only for adult citizens.
There are a lot of cars, the staff is not very kind, especially the Kazakh post, I do not know if they receive a salary or live at the expense of others several times I drove from there, but they ask for money as if I owe them
oh damn, the Uzbeks are doing well, they are building a new customs border, but our side is pandemonium, stuffy, there is no condition, it seems that they are artificially making a stir, a crowd, etc., for a mover
Who eats for the first time, beware of scammers who offer to skip you without a queue for money, ask for 2 thousand Russian, it's all a hoax. The post itself launches people very slowly, you can stand for a day
It's just awful!!! One of the worst customs! Everything has been done to ensure that people pay different intermediaries, for crossing the border, for currency exchange! No control from the state! It's like a third world country(((
It is necessary to cross the border early in the morning, before 6 a.m. Passed both borders in 10 minutes
On the Uzbek side, turnstiles were made with the reading of a foreign passport and the verification of an exit permit. Much faster than before. Thanks
When leaving Kazakhstan for Uzbekistan, Kazakhs create an artistic queue with great expectation for people with a car. We've waited too long. They offered to leave without waiting in line for money. We refused
Apparently, as luck would have it, but from Kazakhstan, travel to the territory of Uzbekistan took almost 10 hours! There are no complaints at all about the employees who carried out passport control and car inspection - everything is extremely polite, neat and fast! But to get to the control area itself.... From Uzbekistan, the passage with car inspection and passport control took 1.5 hours
It is better not to cross the border by car! On December 8, 2023, I crossed it for as many as 14 hours! It's just a horror!!!! But the footwork is just brilliant, 15-20 minutes and voila, you've already crossed the border
As expected, there is dirt on the border, annoying, not giving passage, taxi drivers and money changers. The work of Kazakhstani border guards is an order of magnitude lower than the level of Uzbeks. Either there is not enough control, or they just got used to living in a mess.
One of the main border crossings. You usually get through the Uzbek part quickly (everything is electronically scanned) and ... you get into the last century of the neighbors , when the data is processed manually
It's good for taxi drivers here, I arrived, waited 5 minutes, 3-4 customers will already be at least 20-25 thousand to the city. It happened to me when I went there on business
A creepy place..... in all aspects. You can stand by car for 12-14 hours. That's what happened to me on the Turkic New Year 24. I don't recommend it at all. Look for other routes.
Having such a flow of people, for some reason both countries do not create normal conditions for people, there are no access roads, infrastructure, ventilation, or cooling on both the Kazakh and Uzbek sides.
Of course, there is more order than 5 years ago, but the passage of this customs is still considered a test. The scope for automation and optimization is very large
We passed 1.05.2024 - we arrived at one o'clock in the morning, there are 20 cars in front of us in three rows (i.e. about 60)... The left lane is for buses, which passed so well and for those who want to buy a place closer to the dealers (about 50 usd) ... We stopped at Kazakh at 6 a.m. somewhere, we didn't look there practically, but the Uzbeks forced all things out of the car through a scanner and searched for a long time for a copter, which we don't have))). At 10:45 we were in Uzbekistan
We went on vacation to Tashkent ( or is it the border of Kazakhstan, I don't remember anymore ). Well, it's hot there, the queue is very huge and there are a LOT of WASPS! It was just unbearable...
many people argue, did we wait for our turn for a day or two? Due to the fact that you can only drive on the 2nd roads, those who just arrived decided to stop by the 3rd and had to call the police, and the work was suspended
In short, there's a tin to survive💀
"I don't know," he said, " but I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know, I don't know.Yesterday 2 children and barsak otkyzbey Aleke built ursip tour with Biz.
She passed the procedure normally. Everything is organized perfectly, in queues and so on. The green corridor is available with children and is allowed to go ahead. The staff is quite polite. Pay attention to the two former CIS countries, and you cross the border from the non-Uzbek side of the mud and the poor, but the signs are in Cyrillic)
From Uzbek to Kazakh.
If you buy a queue, then everything is fast enough.
Customs on both sides works well and correctly. Kazakhstan, as they say, may be working for a long time, but I decided not to delay and accelerated the process, everything turned out according to the regulations, without unnecessary toffee. Uzbekistan just thoroughly inspected everything without delay.
The fact that there should be no queue for sale, but there should be a sufficient number of posts to allow such a number of people not for days and not for the purchase of a queue, three stars. Because the possibility of buying a queue from units, and the rest to stand is a mockery and shame.

I went to visit my parents and relatives at 23. We arrived closer to 6 p.m., the end of May, the heat, the crowd of people, cars. we stood in the car for several hours from Kazakhstan, then in the neutral zone, then running around with luggage, passports, inspections, tinting, a bunch of windows, it's unclear why..We went out in Uzbekistan at 3 am!
We decided to go in the opposite direction in the afternoon, there was almost no queue from Uzbekistan, we crossed the border in about forty minutes, customs officers were a little late on the Kazakh side, they were interested in our trip, from where and how we were traveling, how it was on the Uzbek side..
In total, about two hours, then on the way to Troitskaya, the border was much faster here. to Kazakhstan that to Russia, despite the queues being 4 times longer.
Three stars for the border guards, they're doing their best. Well, it's a minus two, because on the Kazakh side, nimble people run and pull cars for money without waiting in line.
As always, you stand and wait for a miracle, suddenly they will start working, suddenly they will think about us that we are standing in the heat for 8 hours in one place, not an inch forward, this is all hope, but in fact, no one cares what you are standing, children cry, someone feels bad, they can queue for money, places are sold as much more expensive as closer To the customs, it seems that this is one big conspiracy
The disgusting Border outpost that I have met in my life! The attitude towards people is bestial! Employees do not perform their functions properly. Corruption is rampant!
It takes about an hour to drive from Shymkent, which is very convenient. Here you can immediately change the currency! Taxi services in large numbers! The staff is working at the highest level!
Last year, I was traveling with my children, carrying my things, and the customs officers asked for money for the cargo, as if I were carrying new things. It was unpleasant...
**Feedback:**
Unfortunately, my experience at this customs was disappointing. The workers I encountered demonstrated a lack of professionalism and literacy. The document verification process was slow and inefficient, and some of the questions I was asked indicated a lack of knowledge of their own work. I hope that the situation will improve in the future, as the current level of service does not meet expectations.
High workload due to the closure of Kaplanbek customs
How far to go neutral
There is a partial construction, I hope this will facilitate the level of passage of the TC
The checkpoint between the Republic of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan is just terrible. There are no conditions. The checkpoint has been standing as it was for more than 15 years.
There are a lot of people, there are long queues on the side of the Republic of Kazakhstan, but the border guard service is coping.I would like to make it easier and simpler somehow.
I have never seen a dirtier border checkpoint, and on both sides.
Create a "battle" for cleanliness and the other side will pull up to you, not wanting to seem dirtier.
I got on a long weekend (May 2023), when crowds of migrant workers were marching from Kazakhstan to Uzbekistan. Customs officers from Kazakhstan did not regulate the flow in any way. At the same time, cunning local teenagers formed groups of 2-3 people, led them through the way to the exit from customs and passed through a hole next to the Kazakh customs officer, slipping it "into his pocket". At the same time, the main stream was crowding in a crush, small children were screaming, because they could really be crushed. In the heat, people felt sick, the customs officers did not react to this in any way.
There are a lot of queues like a turtle working, the staff are impolite and like a dog they are looking for something to get out of Uzbekistan about 6 o'clock back there is a huge queue, you can expect a nightmare for days.
A branch of Hell on Earth. Artificially created traffic jams and queues. Lazy and corrupt are practically all border guards. I do not advise anyone to drive through this checkpoint by car.
I read the reviews and strained, but everything went well, so I wanted to write about it so that others wouldn't worry like me.
I passed the border at the end of October - the border is like a border, normal, without queues, without traffic jams, without extortionists. Yes, the employees are not very friendly, but it's not the service sector that everyone smiles at you.
Important note: I passed the border on foot. Perhaps it would not be superfluous for the previous commentators to indicate their path, since I do not know how to walk by car or bus, and the drivers accordingly have no idea about walking.
There were 5 people in front of me, in total, in half an hour I passed both Uzbek and Kazakh border guards. The usual questions were asked, nothing out of the ordinary happened.
