TLDR : Answer Summary

Yes, if you are arriving in Thailand on or after May 1, 2025, you must fill out a Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) prior to your arrival. This can be done up to three days in advance. It's a requirement for all foreigners, regardless of visa type.

How about stating when you're going to actually ARRIVE in thailand ?

If you come in on or after May 1st, you DO need to file a TDAC (Thailand Digital Arrival Card) thru the online system.
