Border controls and cross-
border mobility
(Reduced crossings points, type
of controls, congestion, CB public
transport…)
Border crossing between Guben (DE)
and Gubin (PL)
Copyright : Euroregion Spree-Neiße-
Bober e.V.
Poland was the first to decide to close its borders with a very
short notice, which engendered traffic congestion. Germany
closed its border shortly after, without establishing border
controls but imposed self-isolation at home in case of border
crossing. On the Polish side, there were temperature checks
to filter the access, carried out by the Polish border police,
and a complete 14 days of mandatory quarantine for
those who crossed border, including CB workers. CB
public transports were completely interrupted.
CB coordination and dialogue
during the crisis and the de-
containment phase
As borders reopened gradually to CB workers (except for
medical staff), there were still border controls CB work cer-
tificate had to be provided. Medical staff was finally allowed
to cross border without difficulties only after May 16th.
Impact on cross-border
workers
(Remote working and taxation,
social security, unemployment…)
CB workers (more than 3000) were strongly affected as they
could not commute at all. The government of Brandenburg
issued a decree addressing CB workers, which were offered
60 EUROS per day, plus 20 EUROS per day for relatives if
they decided to stay in Germany.
