Yes, it's nonsense and not a border crossing. We were traveling from Belarus to Lithuania in June 2023. Lithuanian customs officers are incredibly lazy... We stood, attention, 4 HOURS!!!! And the border is empty! There are no cars at all! All some kind of red tape with documents, the car was rummaged through (despite the fact that the car has Finnish license plates), something was detained somewhere... In general, it's tin, don't go there if you don't want to stand in the sun for God knows how long.
He crossed the border towards Lithuania in mid-February 2023. I came here because I was afraid of the queue of 320 cars in Brest. So, this is the WORST border crossing I've ever been to. The queue at the entrance is "only" 5 cars. But don't let this figure mislead anyone. I arrived at 10 a.m. and crossed the border in a total of 8.5 hours. It's all the fault of the Lithuanians - they don't work, but sabotage the work of the border crossing. It feels like they've been given the task of letting as few passengers through as possible. At the same time, trucks pass very quickly. The most infernal traffic jam is between the Belarusian and Lithuanian sides. They stood stupidly in place for 3 hours, since the Lithuanians were passing 5 (five) cars per hour! This is terrible!!! There are no complaints about the Belarusian border guards and customs officers! Strangely enough, everything is clear and fast for them. My advice is to avoid this MAPP!
For a very long time. We were on our way from work. I didn't like the gas equipment. They sent me for an X-ray. The loss of time is 2 hours. But I want to go home faster
Huge greetings, and thanks to all the border guards for their assistance, when I showed the plane ticket, and said that I was late for the airport, I agreed with the queue that they would let me through, the border guard near the barrier said that if I went around the queue, they would not let me into the checkpoint and return to the end of the queue.. the guys acted very humanely and left specially in advance, as a result, 3 hours and the queue does not move at all!!!! Will someone return the money for my ticket?? Or maybe a penalty for not being able to get to work??? The ticket was on hand and I showed it and told you!!!! The gentlemen helped out a lot !!!
Good conditions for drivers. They work very fast, there are actually no queues for paperwork. There is a vending machine with drinks and snacks in the building. In the neighboring territory in Lithuania, the opposite is true. They keep a queue, no water, no food. 3-4 cars are allowed into the terminal, after which the barrier is closed for a long time. You can hang in front of him for 5-6 hours
You often have to go to this crossing. Basically, this is when we move from Lithuania to the Republic of Belarus. The staff of the border service and customs authorities of the Republic of Belarus work quickly, everything is clear.
I have no complaints against the customs officers, as well as the border guard service. Everything is in its place, thank you for your hard work!!!! I would like to have a real border crossing time anyway!!!!!!! Gentlemen officials!!!!! Please do not torment those heavy truck drivers, we are also people and we have families, and they are waiting for us at home too!!! What about your working day??? And until I bring it, you won't buy it in the store!!!! Give us time to go home!!!!! Give me a real delivery time!!!! CUSTOMS Inspector!!!!! I'M TALKING TO YOU!!!!!!
The new terminal has been rebuilt, there is more parking space. The Belarusian side does not work badly, but the Lithuanians are slow, one channel is loaded and one empty, loaded ones always pass slower.
Such entry and exit is intentionally made in order to artificially create traffic jams. Not so long ago, having 6 cars in front of me, I crossed the border for 3 hours and 30 minutes. At the same time, it seems that Lithuanian border guards and customs officers treat Belarusians better than ours. Apparently from idleness, our people make stupid demands. There is nothing like this in Kolovka, Kamenny Log and Benyakoni, although there is only one technological scheme.
I highly recommend it. The queue is small, everything is fast

A normal checkpoint is like everywhere else. Even if there are no cars, buses, it is necessary to make a pause to "eat twix" both by border guards and customs officers when a car or bus arrives. This is not a store, not a clinic, not a bank, there is no one who scandalizes, does not swear for the fact that for half an hour, or even more, no one will approach you and do not contact these services. Just like everywhere else.
The car was shaken up with the contents of the suitcases being turned out. We were looking for what I could import.. lard or lard. And I will not pay taxes on lard. What's in the box? A vacuum cleaner? New !? Is this the box from the graphics card? On the monitor? Is the monitor new? And where is the video card? Strange customs. Not professionals. It is not clear why a family with a child should take up time
A passenger car can cross the border relatively quickly. The lack of a queue is due to the strict laws of Lithuania in relation to smugglers, so they are practically not here, and as a result, queues and confusion. There are duty free shops at the exit from the Republic of Belarus, but not at the entrance.
On average, you can drive for an hour and a half.
Belarusians work perfectly, but Lithuania does not work from the word at all. I registered in RB in 7 minutes, I had to wait for departure for 7h 20min.
