okay, the Mae Sai border is CLOSED to people bouncing out and in even if you have an evisa that states your port of entry as Tachiliek you will be denied entry.

For all practical purposes that border is closed for bouncing.

If you already have the E-Visa it should be good to cross at that border.

You cannot enter now. No visa is issued and the e visa has no option for Tachilek crossing.
