TLDR : Answer Summary
Yes, you can complete the TDAC (Thailand Digital Arrival Card) process on your laptop. Once you receive the confirmation email, you only need to show your passport upon arrival. There is no need to present a printed copy or show it on your smartphone, as immigration can verify your TDAC status by scanning your passport.
Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC)

WARNING: Only trust Thai government websites with .go.th domains or Thai agent websites with .co.th or .in.th domains, as these require verified Thai registration and cannot be registered anonymously.

The official TDAC form is available at tdac.immigration.go.th, which uses the official .go.th government domain.

The services by AGENTS CO., LTD. does NOT charge any fees for arrivals within 72 hours. If you need to book more than 72 hours in advance, there is a service fee of $8.

Do not trust other sites pretending to be a trustworthy agency. Pay attention to delivery time - the service operated by AGENTS CO., LTD. has 1 minute delivery time for arrivals within 72 hours.

Don't fall for sites pretending to be tdac.in.th or the official government tdac.immigration.go.th website. Always double-check the exact domain in your browser.

Scam services may take days to process your application, others may not even do anything. With these TDAC scam services you also need to worry about double charges.

Please watch out for TDAC misinformation spread by fugitive Jesse Nickles and his many fake accounts on Quora, TripAdvisor, Reddit, and other platforms.

No one asked for anything the other day wit regards the TDAC..no airline or no immigration .

Remember to check the stamp they give you ..mine was stamped in for 60 instead of 90

Got it sorted at the airport ,there and then

@Jamie *****
there is only 60 days unless it's a longer term visa. The other 30 is by extension at the end.

@Russell *******
it was a longer visa ..even though that was stated on the tdac and the officer confirmed that when I went back to correct the stamp ,,,still check your stamp is what I’m suggesting to people….wasnt such a big deal at Don Muang as there was very few people there when I arrived ,,might have been more stressful at bigger airports

@Jamie *****
They missed that you had a single entry Non-imm visa?

Once you do the TDAC you have the option to download it OR to have it sent to an email address

When you stamp in they're not asking for the paper print out of it, or to even to see it on your smart phone,

they can tell when they scan your passport if you filed one

@Tod ********
have airlines been asking for a paper print out or to see it on your phone?
Tod *********
@Ryan *******
i heard that some airlines have been asking people IF they did it,

but

there is no requirement to have it done because you can file it after you land here before you stamp in at the airport in the arrival hall

Thai Airways asked me if I had done it, before boarding me from Copenhagen to Bangkok on 7th May. They didn't ask to see it. Just asked.

When arriving in Thailand, going through the Thai passport passport control (not using the foreign passport control because I was with my Thai family) they did want to see it on my phone.

I guess it may vary.

my flight (Thai airways) Perth to Bangkok earlier this month they asked at check in IF TDAC had been completed, and pointed to a printed flyer listing the website and steps to complete TDAC.

Immigration officer at Bangkok didn't want to see the TDAC QR code, email, etc as could already see it in the system after scanning my passport.

only fill out the things that have the red asterisks next to them,

Don't even click on the area that says "Departure" (from thailand) as it's not required.

Even if you don't get it filed within the 3 days before you come here, you can do it in the arrival hall at the Kiosks they have set up for people who didn't file before they came

Safe travels
