At the border with Serbia, there is heavy traffic for passenger cars passing through the Kalotina checkpoint.
At the border with Greece, there is heavy traffic for passengers cars passing through the Kulata and Makaza border crossings. Tourists heading to Greece are advised to use alternative checkpoints, such as Ilinden and Zlatograd, respectively. The Kapitan Petko Voyvoda crossing is also a good alternative. Heavy trucks are not allowed through the Makaza, Zlatograd, and Ivaylovgrad checkpoints.
At the border with Romania, there is heavy traffic for trucks exiting Bulgaria through the Kardam and Oryahovo checkpoints. From 6 am to 10 pm on Saturday, heavy-duty trucks will not be allowed through the Durankulak border crossing. Due to repair works of the Giurgiu-Ruse bridge over the Danube on the Bulgarian side, traffic is controlled by traffic lights to let vehicles through in stages.
At the border with Turkiye, passenger cars entering Bulgaria should expect slower crossing at Kapitan Andreevo and Lessovo.
Traffic at the border crossings with North Macedonia is normal.
