It depends on the context. A "Border" is a line between countries. A "Boarder" is someone who pays to stay at a house for a while.

They're two different words with different meanings.
Border is line between two countries where there may or may not be customs agents manning it.
E.g. Canada and the US used to have the longest undefended border in the world until Bush became president and 9/11 took place.
Boarder - is someone who lives with you and pays rent to you and pays for meals, laundry etc.
Mrs. O' Leary often took in a boarder or two into her home to supplement her income.
Depending on the context both words are correct .

Both. A border is a division between objects, a boarder is a person who is paying rent.
