Update: Thailand–Cambodia Land Border Status

Date: 20 January 2026

Go Beyond Client Status: We confirm that there are currently NO Go Beyond travelers in the affected areas of Trat Province. Our Operations Team has verified that no guests are currently staying on Koh Chang, Koh Kood, or Koh Mak, nor are any guests transiting through the mainland border districts.

Current Border Status

  • Land Crossings Closed: Please be advised that all land border crossings between Thailand and Cambodia remain temporarily closed on both sides.
  • Security Situation: While a fragile ceasefire has been in place since late December 2025 and fighting has eased, the situation remains tense. Authorities have suspended checkpoints to ensure the safety of civilians and travelers.

Travel & Transportation Advice

  • Overland Travel Suspended: Overland travel across the border is currently not possible. Do not attempt to cross via land routes.
  • Air Travel Operational: Airspace remains open and unaffected. Flights between Thailand and Cambodia (via Phnom Penh and Siem Reap) are operating normally.
  • Recommendation: Travelers intending to visit both countries should reroute via air. Please account for potential flight availability issues and cost adjustments due to increased demand.

Regional Impact

  • Tourism Zones: Major tourist hubs (e.g., Bangkok, Siem Reap) remain unaffected and safe for visitation. However, tourism attractions immediately adjacent to the border may be restricted or closed.
  • Border Provinces: Travelers to border provinces should expect stricter security measures and are advised to verify the status of local attractions before visiting.
