TLDR : Answer Summary
Yes, the 45-day visa exemption can be extended. It is typically extendable for an additional 30 days. If you are visiting Thai relatives, you may be eligible for a 60-day extension. The cost for extending is approximately 1900 THB. It is important to note that this exemption is not the same as a visa, and extensions can only be granted once.

It's a common misconception that this is a "visa" ... it's an exemption from visa. It's extendable once. The "covid extensions" are not to be counted on ... but keep on trickling through (so far)

Yes, the 45 day visa exemption can be extended by 30 days or 60 if you're visiting Thai dependant relatives at a cost of 1900bt.

I assume you mean Visa Exempt entry and yes it can be extended for a further 30 days.
