Visa Run From Thailand To Myanmar..

[loveacrossborders]

Hi all,

I've done the trip from Mai Sie to Myanmar a few times now. However, I'm curious this time if I can get away with not actually officially going into Myanmar?

The exit Thailand Immigration office is about 2 kilometers from the border. Thus, it's easy to get stamped out of Thailand. It's also easy to just walk up to the enter Thailand Immigration office at the border. Now I'm just curious if it's possible to get the exit stamp for Thailand and then go directly to the enter Thailand Immigration to get the entrance 30 day on arrival visa? I don't have any reason to cross the border to Myanmar and it'd save an additional 250baht not to do so.

Kindest regards,

Shaun

Back when there used to be visa run companies, they did this until some holders were caught with no stamps from another country. The fine would likely be more than 250. If you're only thinking of the 250, it's time to get out. Immigration officers may seem to be looking at nothing but do actually look for the entry and exit stamps.
