TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is seeking clarification about staying in Thailand for 68 days with concerns about visa rules. They mentioned typically getting a visa before traveling but were informed that they could receive 45 days upon arrival and could potentially get another 45 days upon returning from Vietnam. The replies confirm that if arriving before April 1st, this is correct, and there are also options for extensions.

 You got 45 days on arrival up until April 1 and you could do a 30 day extension without leaving the country so you can get 75 days without having to go to Vietnam in the middle. You could go at the end.

Currently it’s set to revert back to 30 days as of April 1st. No one knows if it will.
