TLDR : Answer Summary
Ralph Davidson is seeking advice on favorable border crossings for 3-month renewals of his marriage visa, specifically looking for options for day trips to Myanmar or Cambodia. Comments suggest avoiding the Poipet border due to inconsistent rules and fees, while recommending the Phu Nam Ron border in Kanchanaburi province as a more reliable option. It is emphasized that the process involves exiting Thailand and re-entering to secure a new 90-day stay stamp, not an actual visa renewal.

Poipet Border is not recommended because of their sometimes strange rules to let you get back into Thailand. Or they want extra money or they want you to stay overnight in Cambodia. For the rest every border checkpoint is okay to use to activate a new 90 day period of stay by using your 1 year Multiple Entry Non Immigrant O visa base on marriage. You do not renew the visa, you just stamp out of Thailand, stamp in/out other country and get a new stamp for a new 90 day period into Thailand.
