@me_sid: Unfortunately, I did not go beyond the Sam Desert. I believe you do not require permission to visit Tanot or Longewala, but you have to take permission from BSF station @ Tanot Mata Temple to visit BOP 609. However, my knowledge is purely secondary - please take required inputs from experts and Government sites if you are planning to go.[/quote]

u do need BSF permissions but you won't get that at tanot as per my information. actually going beyond tanot is not a routine affair. permission is relayed to the guard manning chauki at tanot mata temple.
i've just made the trip in october to BP609, shall put up my experience up soon.
