From my house I see many planes coming in to land at Tijuana International Airport (8km/5mi from me), and on occasion I can also see planes that (I assume) are coming in to land at San Diego International Airport (37km/23mi from me)
The two airports are approximately 30km/18.5mi apart (as the crow flies), and 40km/25mi by road.
Are there international commercial passenger airports in different countries that are closer? What are the closest?
I specify "international commercial passenger" airports as I know there are airports/airfields closer (for relevant example, Brown Field in San Diego is only 2km from TIJ)

Aqaba Airport (AQJ) in Jordan and Ramon Airport (ETM) in Israel are 12km apart. Both have international commercial flights. When Eilat Airport (ETH) was still open and had international traffic, it was only 8km from AQJ. Taba Airport (TCP) in Egypt is 23km from AQJ and 27km from ETM; TCP has international charter flights according to Wikipedia. (This is particularly notable because Jordan and Egypt do not share a land border!)
Laredo International (LRD) and Nuevo Laredo International (NLD) are 15km apart. Both are international airports with commercial passenger service, although neither currently has commercial international passenger service. Brownsville/South Padre Island International (BRO) and Matamoros International (MAM) are 18km apart, and El Paso International (ELP) and Ciudad Juarez International (CJS) are 20km apart, but both pairs have the same situation.
Bellingham International (BLI) and Abbottsford International (YXX) are 28km apart. Both are international airports with commercial passenger service, although Bellingham does not currently have commercial international passenger service.
In the past, an answer could have been Detroit's old airport (DET) and Windsor (YQG), which are 15km apart. However, DET no longer has commercial passenger service, as that has moved to DTW.
Another historical answer: when West Berlin was not part of East Germany, Berlin's Schönefeld (SXF) and Templehof (THF) airports were 13km apart, but in different countries.

Princess Juliana (SXM) and Grand Case-Espérance (SFG) airports in, respectively, the Dutch and French parts of the Carribean island of Saint Martin, are 9 kilometers from each other, according to gcmap.com.
Most of the few scheduled flights at Grand Case-Espérance are to other overseas parts of France, and so probably won't count as international, but Wikipedia says there are scheduled charter flights to Dominica and Anguilla, so I think it just creeps over the bar set in the question.

Most of the few scheduled flights at Grand Case-Espérance are to other overseas parts of France, and so probably won't count as international, but Wikipedia says there are scheduled charter flights to Dominica and Anguilla, so I think it just creeps over the bar set in the question.
