Answer summary

The Maesai - Tachilek border is currently open for foreigners, allowing day trips under certain conditions such as proof of vaccination or a Covid test. However, while the Mae Sot border has been open for about a month, overnight stays are not permitted for border bounces.

Mae Sai-Tachilek is open, at least for day trips. Unlike Mae Sot-Myawaddy, it appears that Tachilek immigration will allow foreigners in to roam around the city, but with proof of vaccination or a Covid test.

Foreigners can't enter Myawaddy. They can do a border bounce but must return straight away. Thai citizens can enter Myawaddy and travel around but also can't stay overnight.
