Hi All.. for the TDAC it asks for flight details and departure details. I've never been asked for departure flight but the Tdac asks for details. Last year i brought a departing flight just so i had one but was never asked to see it and to be honest i've never been asked for departure flight. so has anyone just put a departure flight on the tdac which they haven't purchased?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The TDAC form requests flight details, including departure information, which some users have questioned due to their experiences. Several comments indicate that departure details and visa numbers are not mandatory. Users suggest that one can leave the departure information blank without issues. Some have noted past requirements for return flight details, but opinions vary on the necessity of this information.
Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC)

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.

Don't answer them questions it becomes mandatory. I believe that's for when you leave the country .

Before the tdac I was asked for my return flight details a couple of times. I always keep a hard copy of my return flexi flight. On the tdac I put the return flight date and number.

Departure information and visa number are not mandatory information. Don't touch any part of the departure information and you don't have to fill it out. Touch any part of it and it all becomes mandatory.
