Dorms V-Ex on Customs: Fee, Rules and Other Exits

Dorms V-Ex is the vehicle extraction on Customs in Escape from Tarkov, named after the dormitory area it serves. It is a PMC-only exit that costs roubles, works once per raid and takes at most four players. It is one of seven car extracts in the game, and the Customs one is not available in every raid.

The official Escape from Tarkov wiki lists the fee as 5,000 roubles per player (Customs page edited 12 October 2026, still valid after patch 1.3.0).

Rules at a glance

Property	Value
Faction	PMC only
Always available	No
Single use	Yes
Fee	5,000 roubles per player
Group limit	Maximum 4 players
Fee modifier	Scav karma

The fee is listed as an amount "influenced by your Scav karma". The wiki's Scavs page confirms that karma changes the car extract fee, giving Dorms V-Ex on Customs as its example. The wiki is not fully consistent on the amount: map pages say 5,000 and quest pages for car-extract tasks say 20,000 by default, so the price in the extraction prompt should be treated as final. For the general mechanic and the other six cars, see Car extract.

Customs context

Customs is the second map added to Tarkov. The wiki gives 10 to 12 players per raid and a duration of 35 minutes, with Scavs, Reshala, Partisan, Knight, Big Pipe, Birdeye and Cultists as enemies. The map was reworked on 26 December 2024 (patch 0.16.0.0). In 1.x it is at first reachable only by transit; direct selection unlocks during the story chapter Tour. It has 16 extraction rows, so Dorms V-Ex is one choice among many.

PMC options besides the car, as listed on the wiki:

Exit	Condition
Boiler Room Basement (Co-op)	Scav + PMC together; in the basement of the boiler building with two chimneys
Crossroads	None listed
Old Gas Station	Open for PMCs on green flares; in the basement
Railroad Passage (Flare)	Shoot a green flare into the sky inside the signal flare area
Railroad to Reserve	None listed
Smugglers' Boat	Note with code word Voron
Smugglers' Bunker (ZB-1012)	Note with code word Voron
Trailer Park	None listed
ZB-1011	None listed
ZB-1013	Lever in warehouse 4 at the crane yard, plus the ZB-1013 key; in the basement of the Scav base

Recent changes

Patch 1.2.0 (6 October 2026) changed Customs in several ways: PMC and Scav extracts were adjusted with new exits, new loot spots were added to locked dorm rooms and the USEC warehouse, locked containers now always hold loot, and two new keys, the ZB-1013 key and the Guard Post key, were added. It also fixed the flare extraction area (the sniper no longer fires at players along the wall) and made the Boiler Room Basement co-op exit available regardless of where the player spawned. Earlier, patch 1.0.4.0 (27 March 2026) fixed a bug that stopped players from paying vehicle fees with roubles split across several stacks.

Using the car: what to prepare

• Carry the fee for every rider in roubles. A squad of four needs 20,000 roubles at the listed price.
• Expect the car to be missing sometimes: the wiki flags it as not always available.
• Remember the single-use rule. If another group takes the car first, a different exit is needed.
• Choose it for a dorms-centred raid. Dorm keys such as the Dorms 214 key and Dorms 206 key open the rooms nearby, so a loot run in the dormitories can finish at the car.
