So went across today 15 days. 50TJS or $10 for the tempory import all very easy, Tadjiks were very nice and welcoming. Probably spent a bit longer a the border post and police checkpoint than we needed just chating to the people there.
Good tip if you don't have a Russian Visa in your passport (or have it in a different passport), have a translation of your Name into Cyrillic. Helps things along, it is easy enough do yourself if needed.
Wish we would have stayed in UZ longer, just cruising around meeting people from the south. Really nice people, that includes the cops. If you anyone decides to do the border crossing at Tursunzoda make sure to stop in at the markets in Denov (Deanu), it is really an experience. Just ask my wife who was taken around to get some stuff, by a lady wh just wanted to help.
