If that's the case you could go to the immigration office in your area BEFORE the 30th of march and apply for a 60 day covid extension for 1900baht.

you just fill out the forms they hand you and provide the correct copies of your passport and proof of where you're staying.

there is no "prove you can't go back" required. just fill out the forms and check one of the boxes, like your embassy doesn't issue the letter and it's dangerous to go back to your country

I say go before the 30th of March because that's the date this current covid extension program runs out. SO you'd have to go by that date to apply

So you entered on a 60 day tourist visa stamp, you extended that by 30 days at the immigration office for 1900baht and that stamp runs out April 7th? Correct?
