ORIGINAL POSTER

Italian Passport here.

1year Multi entry non o base on marriage.

I need to do my visa run by the 4th April.

I was planning on doing it tomorrow.

Usually use the phu nam Ron border, seems like Italian Passport are not allowed anymore,right? 

Would it make any difference the fact that from the passport you can see it's over a year I'm not in Italy?

Seems it seems like most countries are not allowing Italian Passports.

What are my options?

I read somewhere that at Chang wattana  I can get a 60 days extension based on my wife,what would the requirements be?

Thank you so much to be so helpful in such a confusing period.

TLDR : Answer Summary

An Italian passport holder with a one-year multi-entry Non-O visa based on marriage is seeking advice on alternatives to a visa run due to restrictions at the Phu Nam Ron border. There are doubts about the feasibility of crossing borders given the current restrictions on Italian passports. A suggestion is made to apply for a 60-day extension based on marriage at the Chaengwattana office as a viable option.

Do an extension instead of a bounce

You could get 60 day visit thai family extension for 1900baht based on marriage. That's a viable option. GO to Chaengwattana and get the hand out listing the documentation required

I doubt you're gonna be able to bounce at ANY border by land with a passport from Italy.

I don't even think there's a country nearby you can fly into either.

You are NOT gonna get out a Phu Nam Ron, they were denying italian passports (and S/A like always) today.

I think you think wrong, a UK passport is not the same as an Italian passport.
