Each crossing has its own page with the breakdown by port, open lanes, vehicle and pedestrian waits, plus SENTRI and Ready Lane where available. Pick your crossing from the list below to see the full report.

Border crossings FAQ

Which border crossings can I check?+

We cover the main Mexico–United States border crossings, including Tijuana–San Diego (San Ysidro and Otay Mesa), Calexico–Mexicali, Nogales, Laredo–Nuevo Laredo, Reynosa–McAllen and Matamoros–Brownsville, plus the six Ciudad Juárez–El Paso bridges.

Where do the wait times come from?+

From official CBP (U.S. Customs and Border Protection) data, which we update every few minutes. We show waits for vehicles, pedestrians, and, where available, the SENTRI and Ready Lane lanes.

What time has the shortest wait at the border?+

In general, weekday early mornings and mid-mornings tend to have lighter waits. Afternoons, Sundays, and holidays are the heaviest at almost every crossing. Still, check your crossing’s live number, since every port is different.

Does SENTRI work at every crossing?+

Most large crossings have SENTRI and Ready Lane, which greatly reduce the wait. Each crossing’s page shows whether that port has those lanes and their live wait.
