TLDR : Answer Summary

For a 2-week holiday stay in Thailand, Australians do not require a visa as long as they comply with the entry requirements, which now include filling out an electronic digital entry card. There's no new digital tourist visa being introduced, instead, the electronic card is simply a digitized version of a previously paper form.

It shows up like this when you try to put the arrival date in . You can only select a highlighted date . In this case day zero is 9 April and day 3 is 12th April. You cannot select dates outside the window.

There is no "new digital tourist visa."

EVERYONE travelling to Thailand that isn't a Thai citizen will have to fill out an electronic digital entry card. It's just replacing an old paper form they used to hand out on the plane.

you clown, there is nothing on the application to say 72 hours and not before. yes the form is easy, i never said it wasn't so learn to understand english or be quiet.why say. why does it say "invalid format". the format is correct. the timing is out . As for convict status you sound like a yank out of tune
