Does my Thai wife need to complete the TDAC when returning to Bangkok?

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

Good morning.

My wife (Thai) and I will be returning to Bangkok from Australia this coming Saturday the 9th of August.

I will be doing the online TDAC for myself and am asking if my wife also has to do it ?

Looking forward to your positive feedback

Cheers
