Back in 2005 I merely wanted to go to the duty free shop just outside of the Gevgelija border crossing.
I had a legitimate passport and no expensive or even cheap equipment on me. My cousin took me through in her car.
We were held up at the border crossing for about an hour just to go 50 metres down the road to the duty free shop.
My cousin handled all the enquiries and even went into the office. Nothing was asked personally from me.
I didn't know what the big dilemma was. Eventually we got through. I don't know what went on in that office and I hope she didn't pay for any bribes. She wouldn't tell me if she did.
She has a lot of contacts and is a high profile business exec. but that shouldn't have made a difference.
