We also remind you about drawing up travel documents in time and in a proper way, so as not to spoil your trip.

During the past 24 hours, six travellers offered border guards illegal benefits in hryvnias and euros in order to cross the state border without any obstacles at Rava-Ruska and Diakove border crossing points, and they did it twice at Shehyni and Krakivets BCPs.

All cases of bribe offers were documented, and reports were sent to the National Police according to the signs of detected criminal offenses.

We also remind that this weekend at the Zaporizhzhia international air border crossing point, the Russian national tried to bribe a border guard with 2,100 US dollars.

In total, since the beginning of 2021 275 people have tried to bribe border guards of the State Border Guard Service.
