Situated across the Danube from the municipality centre, Neštin is a practical exclave, as the shortest road (9 km) linking it with Bačka Palanka (across the Ilok–Bačka Palanka Bridge) leads halfway through the territory of Croatia, and includes two border crossings. Tightened border regime due to Croatia's accession to the European Union in 2013 caused inconvenience for daily commuting of pupils and workers. Agriculture producers of Neštin were hit in particular, because transport of goods through Croatia was not permitted anymore without extensive paperwork.
