Hi everyone,
I’m planning to do a border run from Thailand and I’m trying to figure out which specific checkpoint is the best for a smooth exit and re-entry into the country.
I’m currently considering doing the run via:
Laos
Malaysia
Myanmar
But what I really want to know is:
Which checkpoint is the most relaxed, safest, and tourist-friendly for a border run?
Where are they least likely to question or deny re-entry back into Thailand?
In your recent experience (2024–2025), which checkpoint do you recommend — and which ones should I avoid?
I’m not planning on staying long outside, maybe 1 or 2 days — and back in without any drama.
Would love to hear from anyone who’s done this recently and can recommend a specific border crossing (e.g. Nong Khai, Sadao, Mae Sai, etc.).
Thanks in advance for the help! 🙏
Your advice will really help me avoid problems at the border.
