I changed money and bought a SIM card from a young guy, as a result, I slipped a non-working SIM card, promised to return the money and did not throw it off
Due to repairs, the roads are not smooth and it is far to go
I liked the faisidi contactless pass system from the Uzbek border. We are waiting for innovations to come to the Kazakh side
Of course, it became much easier to cross the border than before, well done on the Uzbek side - they made an automatic pass without queuing at the kiosk to the border guard, but on the Kazakh border, as luck would have it, but it takes no more than 30 minutes to cross the border, the last time in 20 minutes everyone passed.
Oh, customs is like customs.
It is not customs that decorates people, but people who decorate customs.
People are kind, everyone is in a hurry.
Everyone has a smile on their face
Kazakistan customs is excellent, but our Uzbek customs is sooo bad when they want it to work, then I personally will put you out of 10 minus 3 in short, who will cross the border will understand what kind of customs it is 👎👎👎👎👎👎👎
Oh yeah.
This is an interesting border crossing point. On the Uzbek side, everything is much faster than on the Kazakh side. It usually takes longer to cross the border by bus than on your own. If there are a lot of goods, then through the scanner. There are money changers and taxis on both sides. Since the transition to Saryagash is closed for reconstruction for 2 years, there are more people here.
Maintenance is normal, but you can create better conditions, more automated. And it would be good to pay attention to cleanliness, it's dirty everywhere, there's garbage lying around
The most terrible customs.Where is the Government of Uzbekistan looking?Corruption at customs .For money, they offer a queue in front for 5 thousand rubles for 10 thousand rubles.And at the customs itself, people are specially detained, creating queues in order to earn money from people.Complete chaos.And it is near the capital Tashkent.There were 10 hours in the queue with children and an elderly man.The whole impression is ruined! They have never been detained so much as at this customs office.Don't go there, don't waste your time.
Of the advantages, there is little to mention, I think the most popular and used passage for residents of Uzbekistan and Kaz is just to cross the border
Add to the previous one
The very poor passing of passenger cars is depressing.... since it would be convenient to move by yourself .. I would like the governments of Kazakhstan and Uzbekistan to resolve this issue. In general, there is no problem to come to Russia from Kazakhstan with our Kazakhstan numbers
I caught such a keftie while I was crossing, there are a lot of people, and so you pass through without any problems, people work normally, they do everything quickly, they put stamps in the passport evenly, and not if they were on clean pages..
It's a wild horror! Don't take you there to Nauryz! What's on the Kazakh side, what's on the Uzbek side! The ball is ruled by the helpers selling their place from 5 to 30 thousand tenge. We went to Uzbekistan in 7 hours and then moved due to the purchase of seats, and we went back with the purchase in 14 hours!
This is a huge disadvantage for Akorda, and especially for Tashkent. When the 2 nearest posts were closed, all the people rushed there! And instead of strengthening the inspection teams, the Uzbeks both worked from the beginning and continued, fortunately for the helpers.
There were no complaints about the Kazakh side, they were complaining about the Uzbeks, they did not particularly drive cars.
But the unpleasant aftertaste remained!
That's how we and they especially "promote" car tourism!
The outrage is simple. They infringe on people's rights, they are completely lawless, they ask for bribes. They don't want to work, they're stalling, they're creating artificial queues.
The customs point is passed quickly, the only thing there may be queues on holidays when relatives go to visit, do not change money from the first ones who come across
We arrived on 03/18/23 at 8.00 am. As a result , we crossed the border at 00.00 at night . On the part of the KZ , there is a sanitary shock ( gypsies , garbage, spitting, smoking, swearing) , on the part of the UZ , a cultural shock (at customs , everything was turned over to the underpants , they ask questions like : who do you work for and how many po? Hinting at a bribe in every possible way and did not know what to find fault with so that we still gave it). And for 30,000 tenge, they were allegedly passed without a queue, in fact, just where the pedestrian was pushed out, leaving them to be torn to pieces by the crowd))))) The impression is terrible . Allah forbid to go through this a second time
You pass in the direction of Kazakhstan, they don't ask anything, but if you go back, they shake your nerves, they say why Kazakh customs officers visited it and ask you if you have currency or not and check the purse. It's constantly they have problems every time why Uzbekistan did not have this
The Kazakh border
As at the entrance he starts asking for money, how does he like money?
They are not even afraid to take bribes
And there, as the season begins, people are selling cars there. 😮😮
Confusion at the entrance to the border, everyone climbs as employees do not cope with inadequate drivers, especially taxis.and so, in general, the border guards know their business.the border is under surveillance.
When passing the border from Uzbekistan to Kazakhstan, they passed without huge queues spending about 1 hour, but when they passed from Kazakhstan to Uzbekistan, there was a large queue, they spent about 9 hours passing, plus the local population has a business selling a place in the queue)))!
