TLDR : Answer Summary

A user inquired about extending their APEC visa, which is set to expire on June 19. They expressed a desire to extend the visa without leaving Thailand. Comments indicate that renewals may only be possible through specific COVID-19 extensions, which are limited. Discussions suggest that an extension option exists but may require leaving the country or obtaining a COVID extension before it expires on May 28.

IF you don't wanna leave/come back go thru quarantine again to get a new 90 day entry stamp your only option is the 60 day covid extension AND that option runs out on May 28th :O

Unless I'm wrong

there is no 90 day extension on a APEC card :/and there is NO visa that comes with holding an APEC card. You get stamped in for 90 days when you enter on it and you can't extend it at all normally BUT during this covid shit show they were giving 60 day covid extensions to APEC holders
