For residents of almost all states of the near abroad, a visa and a foreign passport are not required, only on the Abkhaz border it will be necessary to fill out the entrance questionnaire and pay for medical insurance. If you are flying by plane, these small formalities can be observed at the airport, but when traveling by bus or minibus, such a checkpoint is located on a bridge thrown through the picturesque PSOU river on the side of Abkhazia. There is a duty -free trade zone between the Russian and Abkhaz border, and there are many small shops on the bridge where you can stock up on various products. Minibuses go from Sochi, the road does not last long. Not far from the checkpoint is the village of PSOU, where the final stop of the minibus is located.
