== Border Crossings ==
When applying for the Myanma e-visa, the government provides you [https://evisa.moip.gov.mm/Home/NoticeToTourist a list of valid crossings for foreigners]. This list includes all international airports like Mandalay, Naypyitaw, and Yangon and a handful of land borders. You'll need to provide them with your intended entry border and exit border. It's not clear what the consequences are of using a different entry/exit border than the one you announced when applying for your e-visa.
=== International Airports ===
Mandalay: [[User: MOAH | Mind of a Hitchhiker]] and partner (Dutch and German passport) used this airport to enter Myanmar in January 2020 coming from Chiang Mai (Thailand). We had e-visas printed out and the process was very fast and smooth. No questions asked and no intimidation. We didn't hitchhike the 40 kilometers from the airport to the city because it was already nighttime and took a taxi instead. (feel free to add entry/exit info)
Naypyitaw: (feel free to add info)
Yangon: (feel free to add info)
=== Borders with Thailand ===
There are lots of land borders between Myanmar and Thailand, but they're often not allowed to be used by foreigners. It's not clear whether that also means that Thai citizens can't cross into Myanmar.
Tachileik (Myanmar) - Mae Sai (Thailand): popular with visa runs. Foreigners can't travel overland from Tachileik to other places in the country due to travel restrictions. (January 2020)
Myawaddy (Myanmar) - Mae Sot (Thailand): the biggest border between the two countries and also popular with visa runners.
Kawthaung (Myanmar) - Ranong (Thailand): a river/sea border. You'll need to charter a (shared) longtail boat here. [[User: MOAH |Mind of a Hitchhiker]] and partner used this border to exit Myanmar in January 2020. It was very hectic.
=== Borders with Laos ===
(someone please add info)
=== Borders with India ===
As of 2014 it seems possible to cross the border from Myanmar to India at Tamu - Moreh, at a cost of $50 - $100 for a permit (depending which agency you arrange the permit with)
You will need: Copy of passport and Myanmar visa; copy of Indian visa (when applying avoid mentioning you are crossing by land). It is possible and easy to get Indian visa in Yangon, as of March 2015 no plane or hotel bookings were required; Itinerary: just a list of cities to be visited along the way to the border (choose the most touristic destinations); Fee ($50 - $100 per person, just depending on the agency you choose)
Officially it takes 15 - 20 days to obtain the permit, but it could be less (like 10 days). There is no need to collect the permit in person, the agency sends a scanned version by email and one can simply print it out.

EDIT 2019 seems that crossing the Myanmar-India border no longer requires a permit (since 2018) and there is no more restrictions about having to exit the country from the same crossing point as you entered. Check yourself to be sure! Crossing Bangladesh and China borders still seems to not be possible for foreigners. borderhttps://www.go-myanmar.com/arriving-and-departing-over-land
=== Borders with China ===
It is apparently possible to cross the Myanmar China border at Ruili. The process should be similar to crossing the Indian border: copy of passport, valid visas, and a permit. An agency confirmed it to [[User: Rovingsnails | RovingSnails]] in May 2015.
=== Borders with Bangladesh ===
The land/sea borders with Bangladesh are closed for foreigners in (February 2020). The border might even be closed for Myanma and Bangla nationals as well.
