Eddy B Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Hi all, I will be going to Mae Sot near the end of this month but before the Budda holiday's. I have a multi entry Non-O visa and was wondering if anyone who has recently crossed into Myanmar using this crossing could give me some advice. I have never used this crossing before and have never used a multi entry visa before, so I am not 100% sure what to expect. I will be going with my wife and her mum but they will stay on the Thai side while I cross over and hopefully with no problems crossing back over with a new stamp in my passport. The reason I am using this crossing is because it is only about 3 hours journey by car plus I had read that they only charge 500baht to enter Myanmar and use a normal sized stamp, not a page filling one like in Laos. Anyway I appreciate any advice given Cheers!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ubonjoe Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Since you have a valid visa for entry you will not have a problem departing Thailand, entering and departing Myanmar and re-entering Thailand. The border pass is 500 baht or a crisp new $10 bill. Border crossings do not close for holidays or on weekends. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
khwaibah Posted July 12, 2015 Share Posted July 12, 2015 Need to look again. Mae Sot is some 360 km from Chiang Mai its more like a 5 hour drive where as Mae Sia is 250 km and is about 4 hours. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not in Chiang Mai. I live near to Phitsanolok. So much closer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
