Do I need to include flight details when filling out the TDAC for a DTV visa in Thailand?
THIM and TDAC notice
Need a clearer THIM and TDAC explanation? Read the THIM guide on thim.in.th.
On The TDAC do you have to put flight details an do dates when you are coming in on the DTV? I’m not that keen on booking a flight 6 months in advance when I’m not 100% sure of my plans.
Answer summary
The TDAC does not require mandatory flight details or return dates when applying for the DTV. You can leave the departure date field empty. Instead, you can fill out the TDAC 72 hours prior to your arrival in Thailand. It is also noted that some visa holders opt for in-country extensions rather than booking onward flights.

OPSorry to clarify, I’m referring to the return date. I’m aware the TDAC is only filled out 72 hours before arrival. I was also thinking of possibly doing the in country extension of the DTV after 6 months so would not have flight details leaving Thailand. I wasn’t sure if onward flight details were mandatory.

No, you don't. The exit date isn't a mandatory field.

The departure date and/or flight is not a mandatory field, if that's what you're asking.

The earliest you can fill out the TDAC is 72 hours before you arrive, so you should know the details by then.
