Rules for entry to Abkhazia
The Republic of Abkhazia is an independent state. The state border between Russia and Abkhazia runs along the Psou River, where the border and customs services of both countries are located. The border post is open around the clock. For a trip to Abkhazia, you need to follow the city of Adler (by air, railway, by car). The distance from the city of Adler to the border with Abkhazia on the river Psou is 10 km (about 10 minutes on the road).
To cross the border on Psou, there are two bridges - pedestrian and road. Border formalities can take quite a long time, up to several hours. Passengers without their own vehicles and not following the transfer of the boarding house cross the border on the pedestrian bridge. The length of the transition in this case will be about 2 km - from the Cossack Market to the border post. On this site, you can use the services of private loaders for transportation of luggage.
