In the fight scene at the hotel, when Borat takes the camera and hits Azamat with it, another cameraman can be seen to the right.
When Borat gets out of the RV where he'd been drinking with the frat boys, it is a different RV than the one he originally got into.
When Borat is running out of the room at the Jewish Bed & Breakfast, he is empty-handed. However, when he reaches the bottom of the stairs, he is carrying his bag.
When Borat is in the antique shop wrecking havoc, he steps on a toy dump truck. The truck causes him to trip, thereby destroying many antiques. At this point, the truck is kicked out of view. When Borat gets back up, the truck is mysteriously underfoot again causing another trip and more comic destruction.
Oxanna the bear disappears from the ice cream truck in scenes where she is not needed.
When the couple who owns the bed & breakfast bring Borat and Azamat food, the two blue cups switch to each side of the tray in every shot.
The DVD subtitles mistranscribe Borat's Polish dialect, suggesting that the subtitle-writers were transliterating it "by ear." "Jak sie masz!" becomes "Jagshemash!" and "Dziekuje" becomes "Chenqui".
Even though Borat and Azamat are in America, the steering wheel in their ice cream truck is on the right side.
When Borat is in his home town, everybody converses in Romanian (except Borat who speaks in English, Hebrew, and Polish, and Azamat who speaks Armenian), but the subtitles of the dialogue spoken are incorrect. However, considering so many details in the movie are fabricated, this is definitely intentional.
In the running of the Jew, when the Jewess lays the egg, it can be seen that rocks have been raised above the street to keep the egg from falling.
When Borat and Azamat are having their hotel room tom-cat-fight, Azamat clearly smashes the lamp against the TV instead of against Borat's head.

In the RV with the frat boys, a microphone attached to the wall in the front of the RV can be seen.
When Borat and Azamat are in a coffee shop arguing about going to California, they are supposed to be in New York City, but Los Angeles street signs are visible through the window.
In the beginning of the film, Borat mentions the countries that border Kazakhstan: Kyrgyzstan, Tajikistan, and Uzbekistan. In reality, Tajikistan does not share border with Kazakhstan, as Tajikistan is landlocked by Afghanistan, China, Kyrgyzstan, and Uzbekistan.
Borat also omits three other countries which also share borders with Kazakhstan; China, Russia and Turkmenistan.

Borat visits a TV station in Jackson, Mississippi. However, the map still has him located somewhere in Virginia.
All of the people in Borat's hometown in Kazakhstan appear to have an Eastern European look to them (which makes sense since the small town of Glod, Romania was used as the setting for Borat's hometown of Kuzcek). In reality the majority of the people of Kazakhstan actually have more of an Asian appearance to them.
The rodeo that Borat goes to is in Salem, Virginia, which is close to the southwest part of the state. However, after he leaves the rodeo, the map shows Borat in the eastern part of the state.
No footage should exist between Azamat leaving Borat and them reuniting, since no one would be around to film him, unless Azamat left his cameraman behind, which seems he'd have no reason to do.
The movie's premise is that this is all real footage made by Borat's news crew. Who, then, is filming the scenes where Borat is alone and homeless on the streets?
During the dinner scenes at the Magnolia Manor, Borat excuses himself to use the restroom, only to return to the table with a bag of excrement in hand, and immediately after, one of the ladies is in the restroom with Borat showing him how to properly use a toilet, which denotes that Borat has no knowledge of toilets or their proper use. However earlier in the film, Borat talks about that on weekend he travels to Astana to "watch the ladies make the toilet".
When he is in the TV station, Borat doesn't understand the lapel microphone; yet in the opening scenes, before he leaves for the U.S., while he is "narrating", he is wearing a lapel microphone.
After the Gay Pride Parade, Borat asks a black congressman "What is gay?". However, later in the film when he sings his country's national anthem, it has a line referencing gays in a negative way. It seems unlikely that he wouldn't know the meaning of the word if it was in their national anthem, especially as means of insult.
When Borat asks Azamat to officiate at his wedding, he asks it in ersatz Kazak, which is really Hebrew. But what Borat is really asking Azamat to do is to make him scrambled eggs, which sounds a bit similar in Hebrew - "hatuna" vs. "havita".
