ORIGINAL POSTER
British citizen living in Phuket with 1 year multiple entry Non B visa.

I need to do 90 day out and back in bounce before 25th march stamp but really need to be out and back in before 22nd when health cert and insurance is required for any entry back in to Thailand.

Singapore now not possible.

Malaysia now not possible.

Myanmar now not possible.

Laos now not possible.

Vietnam now not possible.

where is else possible by land or air. Maybe Cambodia?

Any advice from anyone that knows for sure?

TLDR : Answer Summary
A British citizen living in Phuket is seeking advice on options for a 90-day border run before health certification requirements take effect. Current travel restrictions make it difficult to cross borders into neighboring countries like Singapore, Malaysia, Myanmar, Laos, and Vietnam. Suggestions for Cambodia have been discussed, but uncertainties remain regarding entry. Participants in the conversation express similar concerns about finding viable options to reset their visa status.

I honestly don't know ANY border that's open for you to bounce out and back in at :( Benjamin's suggestion is as plausible as any offered out so far. Get an Evisa to Myanmar ONLINE, FLY to Yangon, THEN slog back to a border with thailand and enter by land. That COULD possibly work

From Yangon the closest border you can enter thailand at is the Mae Sot one

 do you think that would work as a viable way to bounce?

In theory yes, but I think they will not let you leave by land.

yeah, Seeing as you're on a year Non-B you could have bounced out ANY time and gotten a new 90 day stamp :( you should have really thought about this BEFORE now :(

@Tod ********
, Would it be possible for the OP to get an eVisa to Myanmar, fly in, and then return by land, since Thailand, and not Myanmar, didn't close the land borders?

My partner and I are in exactly same position.

Hoping to fly in and out to siem reap on Sun providing things don't change. So far looks like best option. Even in terms of travel time and cost from hkt to rep

 I'm hoping to do it before Sunday because after Saturday night, to enter Thailand from anywhere requires a medical certificate stating you don't have the virus plus insurance for COVID19 cover.

Same boat with Multi-B needing a border crossing and nothing more to reset the 90-day cycle. I'll go anywhere I can... that will take me. Just want to bounce. Land or air and back.
