TLDR : Answer Summary

A user inquired whether they need to fill out a Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) before May 1st since they are already in Thailand. Community members clarified that the TDAC is only required for individuals arriving in Thailand on or after that date, so as the user is already in the country, it is unnecessary for them.

It’s a border entry document. You’re already past that point so you’ll be fine!

The clue is in the name. Thailand Digital Arrival Card.

It’s for when you arrive in Thailand on or after May 1st.

If you’re already here it’s irrelevant. You don’t need to fill one out as you are not arriving into Thailand.
