Mongolia takes border security very seriously and foreign nationals are not routinely allowed access to border areas. The authorities can regard zones of up to 100km inside the border as a border area. If you wish to travel in these areas, you must get permission from the State Frontier Guard Authority. Only a few specified land border crossings are open to foreigners. These include the international rail crossings into Russia and China. | Mongolia takes border security very seriously and foreign nationals are not routinely allowed access to border areas.
