Tayida Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 Sorry if my question is stupid. In the attached infographic it's says three land borders: Udon Thani is a land border? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it would just mean location where you do you test and hotel booking at approved hotels. Udon Thani is close to border. This would occur when land borders open.

Will B Good Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 (edited) I guess they mean the province? Crossing into Laos Edited March 3, 2022 by Will B Good Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rbkk Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 It reads as three distinct crossing points and you are not the only one confused. Udon Thani airport used to have a bus shuttle service to Mukdahan (?) if i'm not mistaken. It's clear as mud. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rbkk Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 "The 3 points of entry are by air (direct international flight or transit domestically via dedicated flight), by land (at the border checkpoints in Nong Khai and Songkhla) and by water (yacht). All travellers are eligible to arrive by plane and yacht, including Thai nationals and international travellers from all countries and territories. Thai citizens and international travellers from neighbouring countries connected with reopened border checkpoints of Nong Khai (Laos border) and Songkhla (Malaysian border) may enter by land." https://thethaiger.com/travel/thailand-pass-test-go-all-you-need-to-know-2 2 land border crossings.....

ubonjoe Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 It should of been Nong Khai/Udon Thani. I think it means that is where some of the SHA+ hotels for one night stay and testing are located. The entries are only in the planning stage. No land border crossing is listed on the Thailand Pass site. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No land border crossing is listed on the Thailand Pass site. Actually, the Thai embassy in Vientiane has posted info on crossing over the friendship bridge into Thailand....even which hotels are approved. Nothing for the process of going from Nong Khai over into Vientiane though. The site is in Thai, so you need Chrome browser to get an auto-translation.https://vientiane.thaiembassy.org/2022/03/4999/ 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

During 1-7 March 2022, those who wish to enter Thailand by land using the Test & Go scheme may obtain a Certificate of Entry (COE) from the Consular Section of the Royal Thai Embassy, Vientiane by calling 02 145 3916 or 020 5551 2228" That's good to know, they're working on extending Thailand Pass to land borders. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That is one of the few clear facts here. Wait for explanation why Udon Thani is explicitly named as a "land border". Maybe similar arranged pre booked transport to hotel like for Pattaya. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Udon Thani is a big city with many suitable hotels, and reasonably close to the border. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
