Dear readers,

Does anyone have experience traveling to Myanmar from Thailand via the Three Pagodas Pass? Can I get a visa there, can I enter with Evita, or do I need anything extra?

Regards,

Philip

    What do you mean Evita?

      E-Visa maybe?

    I'm not sure, but I thought that border was only open to Thai and Burmese/Burmese/Myanmarese (what should you call them?)
    Perhaps there is something for foreigners called a “border pass” that allows you to stay in Myanmar for a few hours. Is there anything to see there?

    Maybe this will help you and you can take another border post.

    I lived there for 4 years and that was already 6 years ago, but at the time it was a border crossing closed to all tourists, especially since it can get quite raging there because of the war "between the Karen population and the Burmese, don't think that will change is.

    I have crossed the border in northern Thailand to Myanmar several times in the past, just to experience the atmosphere in the village just across the border. In addition, to buy the canopy that you put over your moped to stay dry. At that time you could only buy there in Myanmar. If you had to hand in your passport, you received a note telling you to return within the same day. Worked perfectly. Just fun to do. This system may also be common in some other transitions

    At the beginning of this year we were not allowed to cross the border.

    The border post in Sangkhlaburi at the 3 pagodas pass is not open. People with a Thai or Myanmar ID can get a day pass, which gives access to the markets on both sides of the border.

    I am there on average every 6 weeks. Family then goes shopping in Myamar. I, on the other hand, have to wait as it is not an international border crossing. In the past I could cross the border by paying 500 bath (family 50 bath) and handing in the passport, which was given back upon return. During discussions with immigration, it is planned to convert this to an international border crossing, but this would only happen after all infrastructure had been adjusted.
