Відпочинок біля кордону: коли потрібен дозвіл?

The tourist season in Transcarpathia is in full swing. Thousands of people are heading to the mountains, to natural locations and border communities. At the same time, not everyone knows that special rules apply to staying in the five-kilometer border strip. Four controlled border areas with a special border regime have been established in the area of ​​responsibility of the 27th border detachment. These are the Beregov, Khust, Tyachiv and Rakhiv districts, where border guards monitor compliance with the established requirements. At the same time, border guards emphasize that not everyone needs a permit. The special regime does not apply to people who are within settlements. It also does not apply to those who only drive through the border strip on state-important highways or by railway without stopping and getting off at stations in the border zone. Therefore, when planning a vacation near the state border, it is worth clarifying the rules of stay in advance. This will help avoid misunderstandings during the trip and will make your vacation safe and comfortable. Applications are processed within 10 working days, border guards say, and the permit is issued for a period of one year. Thus, since the beginning of the introduction of such changes, the Mukachevo border detachment has issued almost 53 thousand permits, and the Chopsky border detachment has issued over 32.5 thousand permits. Taking this opportunity, the border guards reminded about the possibility of employment and conditions of service in border detachments in their native Transcarpathia. If you have any questions or need help, you can contact specialists; a special separate recruitment website of the State Border Guard Service has been developed for this purpose.
