New rules for drivers: how eCheckpoints will work now
9 September 2025 00:32
Starting September 10, changes to the registration process in the eCheck system for drivers will take effect. From now on, there is no need to apply to the “18-60” module (known as “The Way”). This is reported by "Komersant Ukrainian" with reference to the Ministry of Community and Territorial Development.
“Starting from 8:00 a.m. on September 10, the eChezhda system will operate as a single window. That is, the carrier or driver will fill in the data once, when booking a place in the online queue for crossing the border,” the report says.
What is changing
- Drivers and carriers no longer need to apply to the “18-60” module (known as “Way”).
- From now on, eCheck will work as a single window where data is entered only once – when booking a place to cross the border.
How will drivers be checked?
- Information about drivers will be automatically checked by the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine based on eCheck.
- The eCheck system synchronizes information with the Unified Complex of Information Systems of the State Border Guard Service of Ukraine.
Who will be able to leave?
Only drivers who are
- are registered in the carrier’s electronic cabinet in the UICIS of Ukrtransbezpeky;
- have up-to-date passport data that matches their international passport;
- use the passport that is entered in the eCheck and the UEIS of the State Service of Ukraine for Transport Safety.
What carriers should check
- Check the relevance and accuracy of driver data in the ECIS;
- In case of dismissal of a driver, be sure to check whether he or she has an active queue in the eCheck;
- If there is, first replace the driver in the eChecklist, then enter the date of his dismissal in the UEIS.
- This solution is part of the digital services upgrade that simplifies logistics and reduces the bureaucratic burden for businesses.
Why are these changes necessary?
The Ministry notes that the new approach simplifies logistics and reduces the bureaucratic burden for businesses by combining several procedures into one digital platform.
