The Uba checkpoint is in a dead state. There is only one door and that one is hanging on one hinge. There are holes in the ceiling. The facade of the building is falling apart. The fence is crooked. The flowerbed seems to be beautiful, you approach, and there are torn flowers and hastily buried again. However, not completely. What happened there? Is a new customs house being built somewhere nearby? Has this one already become abandoned?
My love , I grew up here. Now only on a visit, Ust-Kamenogorsk develop, keep an eye on the infrastructure!!! The embankment is in terrible condition (there are no bushes, no flowers in the city, everything is falling apart, I'm upset about the last trip (
The Russian customs is working with a Bang, it passes quickly, but the short circuit is something, you will stand third in line, you can stand for 2 hours at night, it feels like a quiet hour. They don't have enough people.
Stupidly, they don't let the queue go to the toilet. They don't let you off the Bus. Waiting and waiting and everyone is waiting-???? Old men-Women and small children-???- Tin. One window and one specialist. The number of passengers is 44. -Draw your own conclusions.It's not a very pleasant procedure for a conscious person of the 21st century.
Prepare all the documents. Passport, license, insurance. They stand and check. It is definitely not worth giving a bribe, you do not violate it, go very carefully.
Of the disadvantages, I can only say the lack of road surface and there is no pen to fill out the migration card))) although the latter seems to me to be the merit of the people who pass the border point))) the guys are responsive, answer all your questions without any problems
