ATTENTION MEMBERS: Land border closures

The Lao borders are open like normal

The Cambodian borders are open like normal BUT we suggest you do NOT bounce out and back on your own (do so at your own risk)

This is the update on Burma;

The Mae Sai / Tachileik border with Burma in Chiang Rai is closed (they said for a week). The Mae Sot / Myawaddy border with Burma in Tak is closed as well.

If you want to border bounce you can use the two borders with Lao in Chiang Rai province; Chiang Saen / Special Economic Zone <- where you cross in and out of Lao by boat across the Mekong or the Chiang Khong / Huay Xai border <- where you cross by bridge.

Also the Phu Nam Ron / Htee Khee border with Burma in Kanachanaburi is still not open for foreigners to exit/re-enter

At this time he only Burma border open is the Ranong / Kawthaung.

This is provided as an announcement only. We are not going to let commenting on the post.

You want to border bounce, post on a f/b group related to where you stay in thailand and ask. Believe me you're not the only foreigner in your area who needs/wants to bounce out and back..

I'm trying to figure out what to do about my visa. I've been here 1.5 years on covid stamps. Then did a visa run to Malaysia over two months ago and got a tourist visa. They also gave me a blue stamp above saying I've been in Thailand long time and may get denied next time. My visa expires December 28th.

Options. Do a border run to Malaysia and get a 45 day visa exempt instead this time. Go up north to Cambodia or Laos where i heard the border is easier.

Also does it make a difference if I stay abroad until after December 31st? Does it start over in the new year, how many visas I'm allowed to have?

Quick question each time i come back to thailand from a border bounce do i need to have 20,000 baht with me ?
