The Otomanci – Ribarci (ГКПП Олтоманци (БГ) – Рибарци (СРБ)) border crossing was the first one used in July 2022 on my road trip. The border crossing between Bulgaria and Serbia was modern, fast and efficient. I perhaps could have taken more photographs but had not yet transitioned in to full border enthusiast mode and was focused on hire car documentation and getting everything right. UK passports stamped both on exit and entry. The crossing was a rural one and quiet when I was there. Normal border security with scanning, CCTV etc.

The border control posts were about 100m apart with a well marked border in the middle.
