Border crossings

Last update 17.9.2021. 11:40

19 September 10.30am-1.45pm due to the international triathlon race "I feel Slovenia Ironman 70.3 Slovenian Istria" traffic is suspended in Slovenia on the DC208 Črni Kal-Kubed-Gračišče state road so other border crossings are recommended to be used instead of the Požane-Sočerga.

Dvor and Vitaljina border crossings are open to passenger and car traffic only.

At Gunja border crossing there is a traffic ban on freight vehicles and buses due to bridge instability.

Due to occasionally increased traffic volume and current border checks there can be longer waiting time in both passenger and freight traffic at most border crossings.
