Do I need to fill out another TDAC for my flight from South Korea to Thailand?

Need a clearer THIM and TDAC explanation? Read the THIM guide on thim.in.th.

My ticket is through the Delta app. The app is instructing me to fill out a TDAC and it is through a third party within the app. I land in South Korea before making my final flight to BKK. Is this the only TDAC I need or will I need another for Thailand since I will be changing carriers in South Korea.
Answer summary
The TDAC (Thailand Digital Arrival Card) is required for all non-Thai passport holders entering Thailand, regardless of any layovers in other countries. Since you are landing in South Korea before traveling to Bangkok, you do not need a separate entry requirement for South Korea if it's just a layover. You should fill out the TDAC using the official Thai government website, and ensure you enter your flight information from Korea to Thailand.

If you are just doing a transfer in korea, you don't need an ETA for Korea, just a TDAC for thailand.

On the Delta App just say you completed it and then complete it on the Thai site. Delta doesn't really care.

Korea doesnt need one if it is a stop. Only use the official site for thailand DO NOT PAY FOR IT. IT IS FREE

It's absolutely free. Make sure you are on the actually government site and not a third party scan site. The TDAC is specifically for Thailand and has nothing to do with Korea.

It is trivial to fill out, under 5 minutes if you have your flight info and initial address.

Look on YouTube, I'm sure someone made a video walkthrough

TDAC asks you for your flight into Thailand. In your case that would be the flight from korea. Use the official site

Korea has its own digital arrival card AND electronic travel authorization called K-ETA, but most people don't need it. It's nationality based. And if it's a connecting flight, you don't need it either.

Thailand DTAC is mandatory for everybody (non Thai passport holders), for each entry.

TDAC is a Thailand entry requirement. It has nothing to do with Korea. Make sure you're on the real Thai government TDAC site in the graphic.
