Traffic through the Costești-Stânca border crossing point will be restricted on Tuesday, November 10, from 08:00 to 20:00 due to major repair works at the Costești-Stânca Hydrotechnical Complex. The Customs Service advises travelers to avoid this crossing point during this period and use alternative border crossings instead.

According to the institution, the State Enterprise "National Administration 'Apele Moldovei'" (Waters of Moldova) will carry out the work, which will require temporarily suspending traffic through the Costești-Stânca border crossing point in both directions.

To avoid potential delays, travelers are urged to plan their journeys in advance and use other border crossing points, such as Lipcani, Sculeni, Leușeni, Cahul, or Leova.

Freight carriers are also advised to choose alternative border crossing routes, depending on the type of cargo. For loaded trucks, the Leușeni-Albița crossing is recommended, while for empty trucks, the Cahul-Oancea crossing is suggested.

Additionally, to reduce waiting times, Customs Service personnel emphasize the importance of preparing customs formalities in advance. Drivers are urged to verify their customs and transport documents to prevent delays resulting from incomplete or incorrect information.

Drivers should also purchase the road toll vignette for travel on Romanian roads before arriving at the border to avoid additional stops during the crossing process.

For exports, it is required that electronic declarations be submitted in advance, the NCTS (New Computerized Transit System) be utilized, and common transit operations be initiated at internal customs offices within the Republic of Moldova, where applicable.
