Hi, can anyone tell me if the Ranong to Myanmar crossing is operational at the moment? Do I just show up, and negotiate with the boat owners? What is the going rate to use an agent? Any agent recommendations? Thank you 🙏

Is Ranong the only option for border run in Myanmar? Mae Sot and Mae Sai still closed? Any other usable border crossing?

Hi there.. Just a quick update. We extended our METV for 30 days today at Bluport. Too busy yesterday so we got there at 9.30 this morning,along with a few others. Immigration opened 20 mins early and we had everything completed by 11.00am. Record! We know need to leave the kingdom by the 29th January and are definitely considering driving to Ranong and catching the ferry over and doing it by ourselves. ( For our 60 day visa to be activated). Will this be simple enough to do? Is it worth it spending a few nights in Myanmar or just getting our Visa and having a little break back in Thailand. Thank you.

Posted this on another local group But thought I’d ask here as have had good assistance here before… i was asked recently by visiting friend in bkk who is here now, if you can do land border crossing at Chiangsean border since maesai border been closed to tourists now for weeks due to “unrest” happening there 😔

Has anyone crossed here recently? Im getting mixed consensus if only for ( local/ non foreign) crossing

Any other suggestions for a quick land crossing border?

Firsthand experience, appreciated

Thank you in advance👍🏼

I have tried to get a multiple entry 6 month visa but they turned me down and will give me a 90 day visa.

I want to be in Thailand for 120 days. On the 89 day, can I do a Myanmar border visa run and get a 45 day visa without any difficulty.

I can also leave and go to Loas for a few days and return.

I will arrive 11/10 and leave 3/10

Does this sound doable? and which way would you suggest.

thanks

PLEASE do not resurrect 2 year old threads.

Just ask your question.

ALL the land borders with Burma are CLOSED to foreigners getting in and out of the country for "border bounces"

You wanna border bounce by land you do it with Cambodia, Lao, or Malaysia

Hi all, update from Mae Sot - Myawaddy crossing: they are not letting foreigners leave across the bridge, saying that the Myanmar side will not let you in. I went to check this morning and was told by a couple of the immigration guys there; then went to the immigration office and they confirmed. They were not sure how long this would last. They suggested flying to Yangon from Bangkok but I can't confirm/deny if this is still possible or what documents are needed. Myanmar folks can still cross the bridge.

Can anyone suggest another border crossing close-ish to Mae Sot that is still operating as normal? At this point I would like to just hop out and back in asap on the visa exemption. The crossing at Nong Khai requires a visa now?

Thanks very much
