Walking tourists travel outside of Russia separately from those traveling by car. Schematically, the border between Russia and Abkhazia looks like this:

Map of the Adler-Psou border

Border Adler - Psou on foot

Pedestrians to the border with Abkhazia need to walk from the Cossack Market about a kilometer along Urozhaynaya Street in Vesele (Adler). After passing the Russian border service, all that remains is to cross the bridge over the Psou River to enter the territory of Abkhazia. And there they will hardly look at your passport.

⚠ You no longer need to pay any resort fees. Compulsory health insurance in Abkhazia was also abolished long ago. Responsible tourists can buy insurance to Abkhazia in advance on their own initiative. When crossing the border to Abkhazia in 2021, tourists do not need to pay for anything .

Crossing the border with Abkhazia by car

All passengers leaving the Russian Federation for Abkhazia undergo passport control in the Adler checkpoint building on the left side of the road. Drivers remain in the car and cross the border separately. When it’s your turn, you need to go to the window in the booth and present your passport and registration certificate for the car. If the driver and none of the passengers are the owner of the car, then it is necessary to provide a notarized power of attorney from the owner for the right to drive the car with a note indicating permission to travel outside of Russia. To check your luggage, customs officers ask you to open the doors and perform a general inspection of the vehicle. After completing the entire procedure, passengers and the driver meet in the parking lot immediately behind the Adler checkpoint.

Ahead lies the entrance to the territory of Abkhazia through the Psou checkpoint, which is located immediately behind the bridge over the river of the same name. Cars with Russian and Abkhaz license plates drive straight through , just by showing their passports through the window at the checkpoint. For them, crossing the Russia-Abkhazia border has come to an end.

⚠ Compulsory car insurance for entry into Abkhazia has been cancelled. Traffic police officers do not issue fines for the absence of MTPL policy . Registration of vehicles at the border has also been abolished. Thus, when entering Abkhazia by car in 2021 and 2017, you do not need to pay for anything .

But owners of license plates from other countries after the bridge, but before the Abkhaz checkpoint, need to turn left and left again. There in the building you will have to fill out a customs declaration for the car. You need to fill out a special form, which will indicate the date of crossing the border. Essentially, this piece of paper is needed to track the number of days a foreigner has been in Abkhazia. And only after completing the document can you go to the checkpoint to complete crossing the border with Abkhazia by car. When returning to Russia, this declaration will need to be presented at the Psou checkpoint and returned to the building where it was issued.

Customs declaration to Abkhazia

An interesting fact is that in 2021, citizens of Kazakhstan and Belarus can stay in Abkhazia without a visa for only two weeks (for details, see the article Visa to Abkhazia). For now, only the driver can be controlled by the vehicle declaration, since it contains his last name and passport details. How Abkhaz border guards actually control backpackers and passengers remains generally unclear.

The border with Abkhazia - what a tourist must know!

Thousands of people visiting the “Country of the Soul” become violators of Georgian laws. Abkhazia is a partially recognized state that is recognized by Russia, Venezuela, Nicaragua, Nauru and Vanuatu, as well as some unrecognized and partially recognized countries. For the world community, Abkhazia is the territory of Georgia occupied by Russia. From the point of view of Georgia, a visit to Abkhazia by Russia is a violation of crossing state borders , which the Georgian authorities cannot control in the current situation.

If the Georgian side discovers that Russia is visiting Abkhazia, the tourist, at best, will be denied entry into Georgia . In the worst case, the violator will face a heavy fine or imprisonment for up to 2 years (Criminal Code of Georgia, Article 344).

However, as a rule , neither when leaving Russia, nor when entering Abkhazia and in the opposite direction, both sides do not put stamps on crossing the Russian-Abkhaz border in their passports . This attitude applies to both Russians and Belarusians. In most cases, you don't have to worry about replacing your regular or foreign passport before visiting Georgia after Abkhazia.

It is not known whether entry/exit stamps are put on other foreign passports in practice (share your experience in the comments).
