Hi everyone! I'm one of the people who wants to re-enter Thailand. I'm currently in Myanmar with an eVisa but I am waiting for Thailand to reopen the border (in at least 2 months or more being positive) to re-enter with a tourist visa. The fact is that my eVisa in Myanmar is ending (I've 16 days more) and I don't know where to go. If I can go to another country or extend my stay here in Myanmar. The borders of Myanmar are closed now.

Any information is welcome! 🙏

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is currently in Myanmar with an eVisa that is about to expire, and is looking for options on where to go as Thailand's borders are closed due to travel restrictions. The comments provide insights on possible visa extensions in Myanmar, the current travel situation in Southeast Asia, and suggestions to consider returning to their home country or looking for flights to Indonesia as an alternative.

It looks like there are flights from Yagon (whatever the capital is) to Bali.

Also Indonesia seems to have more favorable stance on travelers.

SE Asia is pretty much shut. Google for country updates and you'll find somewhere which summarises what's going on (Fragoman have something). If you can't extend in Burma and nowhere has open borders you can get into then probably best to try and head home.
