What is the customs clearance process when traveling by bus?
We go from Ukraine to Bulgaria by bus. We will go through 3 customs (Moldova, Romania, Bulgaria). How does this even happen? They write here that money can be collected for customs clearance (2-3 euros) so that the bags are not checked? I would also like to know what can be carried and what cannot (of course, we know about drugs, alcohol, cigarettes)? And what about the gifts for the Bulgarians, for example? Subtracted that it is impossible to carry meat and dairy products yet??

We traveled by bus from Kiev. At the customs, the bags were checked selectively. One girl was called and talked for a long time, because. her name coincided with someone "unreliable". Money was never collected. Even after they returned the passports with a visa stamped at the border (although I don’t remember exactly where), they found that one aunt had not been given her. I had to turn the bus around and come back. So be careful. And so, they asked not to joke with the border guards and not to make noise. Have a good trip!)))

What carrier are you traveling with? Usually, if the carrier is normal, then there are no problems at the border. What Juliana wrote above is rather an exception to the rule (they turned the bus around - I can’t even imagine such a thing). I travel quite often both by bus and by train (although there are no trains now) and I fly by plane and by car. I always take hotels both in and out of Bulgaria. Never had any problems. Checking the bus is usually like this: the driver is asked to open the trunk, they let the dog sniff, they can selectively open a couple of bags. It happens, very rarely, that passengers are asked to pull out their bags and go through the control line - but this can happen 1 time in several years. So do not worry, tune in to the best, have a good road and a pleasant stay!
