The Government of Ukraine decided to carry out border and customs control directly in train cars.
This was announced by Prime Minister Yulia Svyridenko.
According to Svyridenko, the practice, which is already in effect on some Intercity+ trains to Poland, will gradually be extended to sleeping cars on night international routes Kyiv – Przemyśl and Kyiv – Chelm.
“We make international travel more convenient for Ukrainians. Today, a decision was made that will allow border and customs control to be carried out directly in train carriages – without long stops at the border and without unnecessary stress for passengers. This format already works in some Intercity+ trains on the Polish route. Customs officers and border guards begin to control passengers while driving at the approach to the border. Now we plan to gradually extend this practice to sleeping cars on night international routes,” the premier emphasized.
This new mode will work on Kyiv – Przemyśl and Kyiv – Chelm trains.
“More than 130,000 Ukrainians travel on these flights every month. We are waiting for the launch of accelerated traffic control in some trains already in January, and then we will scale it to other trains of these directions,” Svyridenko added.
We will remind you that recently the border patrol of the Chernivtsi detachment detained three residents of Kyiv and Vinnytsia regions, who tried to illegally cross the state border of Ukraine with Romania at the section of the “Herts” department.
