Do I need to complete the TDAC form if I'm waiting for my DTV visa while still needing to provide flight details?

DTV Visa TDAC Form Visa Application Process Thailand Immigration Travel from Vietnam to Thailand

ORIGINAL POSTER

I am currently waiting to hear back any day now for my dtv. 

This will be the first time since I’ve left Thailand since the TDAC has come into place, will I still need to do the TDAC form online even though I will have a DTV visa (fingers crossed), and if so how am I meant to put my flight details in 3 days before if I’m still waiting on the results for my dtv? 

Should I wait for my dtv results and then stay 3 more days? Or how long does it actually take to get accepted for the tdac ?

TLDR : Answer Summary

The original poster is awaiting results for their Digital Travel Visa (DTV) while questioning the necessity of completing the TDAC (Thailand Digital Arrival Card) form before their flight. Commenters clarified that the TDAC can be completed anytime within three days prior to arrival in Thailand, even just prior to boarding at the airport, contrary to the initial interpretation of needing to fill it out three days ahead. They emphasized that there is no strict requirement to submit the TDAC exactly three days before travel; it can be done anytime within that window or even on arrival. Additionally, the visa number received after the DTV approval should be included in the TDAC application.

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 agents.co.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.

I just came back from Vietnam yesterday.. after receiving my approved dtv. I subbed my TDAC stuff day before my flight yesterday.. its instant approved or declined.

FYI if you get your dtv you get a visa number on the doc. Incl that # in your tdac app where it says visa number..
