Ok, so no announcement about the exempt days being extended.

Can anyone who has arrived or had friends, family, etc arrive today confirm what stamp they got if visa exempt.
Answer summary
As of April 1, 2023, travelers entering Thailand are receiving a 30-day visa exemption stamp. Several comments confirm that the previous extension of 45 days has ended, and the standard 30-day policy has resumed. Recent discussions also mention that some travelers received a 15-day stamp, indicating inconsistencies in the enforcement of the regulations. Overall, it's clarified that the visa exemption policy has reverted back without any official extensions.

Of course, it's not just about westerners. When there's fewer of us, you'll have Singaporeans, Malaysians, Vietnamese, Indians and Chinese.

Yes perhaps almost too much. Anyway, the high season is over, westerners aren't coming anymore until maybe mid year. That is except maybe for some Aussies coming over for 5 days or so during Easter, which is next weekend.
