Can I complete the TDAC arrival card with just my inbound ticket?
THIM and TDAC notice
Need a clearer THIM and TDAC explanation? Read the THIM guide on thim.in.th.
Is it possible to fill out the tdac arrival card with only inbound ticket.? Not sure when to return but no longer then 45 days.

Answer summary
The TDAC (Thailand Arrival Card) does not require you to fill out a departure date, as it is not marked as a mandatory field. However, some airlines may still ask for a departure date before boarding, especially if you are on a visitor visa or visa-exempt entry. If you are on a long-term visa (such as a retirement O visa), airlines generally will check your visa instead of requiring onward travel details.

the question was about filling out the new TDAC on arrival in thailand and whether you have to have a departure date to complete it. A departure date in not mandatory when filling out a TDAC.Frankie *******

either way the Airlines do ask for a departure date.even if it's not mandatory n get approved the Airlines can denied the boarding n your TDAC arrival card becomes unworthy for further useGraeme ******

@Frankie ******
it depends if you are on a retirement O visa or other long term visa then you do not need any onward travel or departure details the airline will just ask to see your visa. If you are traveling on a visitor visa or visa exempt then you airline may ask for onward travel details but you would need to check with the airline
