As of right now, Thailand has temporarily started issuing visa free facility to Indian citizens for 30 days, so i wonder would it be extendable or not?

TLDR : Answer Summary
India citizens can temporarily enter Thailand Visa-free for 30 days, and this period is eligible for a single 30-day extension.

I had an Indian guest staying last month. She refused to pay to go through the Fast Track lane at Suwarnaphum (the correct spelling) so she only got 15 days. She had to enter Laos and return in Chieng Khong to get another 15 days. The she left and went to Vienam.

 fast track has nothing to do with how long of a stay someone will get. As of 10 November anyone with an Indian passport entering Thailand will receive 30 days visa exempt.

 My Airbnb guest arrived on 9th September expecting to get a visa on arrival. They asked her to go through Fast track and pay an extra $500 to get her 30 days but she decided that was a scam. Hence she only got 15 days. I realise that is all irrelevant now. Thanks for your input which is a great help as I have guests asking me these questions almost every day now that is the “High season”.

 The temporary 45 day Visa Exempt entry reverted to 30 days after the planned 6 month temporary period so don't expect, or even worse, plan on it
