Is it possible for non-Russian, non-Mongolian citizens to cross the border into Mongolia near Mondy, Russia?
There's conflicting information about whether the border is actually open to all nationalities. Can foreigners cross it as of 2016?
Best Answer
We've heard back from our friend who also confirms that it's currently only open to Russian and Mongolian citizens. The official designation as "multinational" might be a vague translation or reflect plans to open the crossing to all nationalities, but it does seem that it's currently just Russian/Mongolian passport holders.
