Borders between the subjects of the Russian Federation - the Republic of Tatarstan and the Chuvash Republic, as well as between the Republic of Tatarstan and the Republic of Bashkortostan have been established. The Minister of Land and Property of the Republic of Tatarstan Fanil Agliullin spoke about the progress of work on establishing the border of the Republic of Tatarstan and neighboring entities.
In December last year, the State Council of the Republic of Tatarstan approved an agreement on establishing the location of the border between the Republic of Tatarstan and the Orenburg Region. Two more agreements were submitted to the Parliament for approval: on establishing the location of the border between the Republic of Tatarstan and the Chuvash Republic and on establishing the location of the border between the Republic of Tatarstan and the Republic of Bashkortostan.
The total length of the border of the Republic of Tatarstan is 3,400 km. The Republic borders on eight subjects of the Russian Federation.

Zelenodolsky, Kaibitsky, Apastovsky, Buinsky and Drozhzhanovsky municipal districts of the Republic of Tatarstan are located on the border. Boundary work has been underway since 2019.
The agreement on establishing the border was signed by the President of the Republic of Tatarstan and the Head of the Chuvash Republic on May 11 this year and sent to the State Council of the Republic of Tatarstan for approval.
