zzzzz Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 (edited) no idea why a link about mae sot was posted regarding a question about Kawthaung? You clear thai immigration , pay for ur boat seat ( 200-300 baht) $10 ( make sure no rips, tears) for the Burmese stamp in and out 30 minute boat ride each way OR you can stay up to 14 days in Kawthaung ( its interesting for a day or 2, especially if u hire a boat for the day and go exploring) Enjoy>> Edited January 13 by zzzzz 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paul1804 Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 (edited) I did the trip to Burma out of Ranong just prior to Covid, it was quite straight forward. Pay the fee for the boat ride and the service, clear customs at the Ranong port and about 30 mins later you arrive at a small island with a casino, pay a fee, get your passport stamped & a 30 minute ride back to the Ranong Port. The entire process took less than 2 hours. It wasn't actually Kawthaung itself, I remember on the boat ride we looked across at Kawthaung town which was probably 5 - 6 miles away, it was a hazy day so a little hard to establish an accurate distance.

zzzzz Posted January 13 Share Posted January 13 (edited) u can travel to the casino ( Andaman club ) on its own island OR Kawthaung town. They do not leave from the same Pier different boat ( casino boat is aircon) and expense, I have read the boat ( return) and stamp for Burma, to the casino is like 2,500 baht++ Edited January 13 by zzzzz Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
