Any update on the border crossing times at Mae Sai? I heard it changed recently. Also, is it OK to still get two visa exempt land crossings per year? Many thanks

Answer summary

The current situation at the Mae Sai border crossing has not changed recently, and travelers can still utilize two visa exempt land crossings per calendar year.

Nothing has changed at border. TWO visa exempt in one calendar year. Only Embassies nearby take a closer look at any ones visa application.
