TLDR : Answer Summary
The community doubts that the 45-day visa exemption will become a permanent policy, suggesting that such announcements are typically made at the last minute by the Thai government.

Very unlikely. It's a short term tourism "fix".

I highly doubt it. But they never make announcements about this stuff ahead of time. 1-2 days before it is set to end is when they announce it.
