Does the TDAC application process ask you to provide an email address?

Mike
Answer summary
Yes, the TDAC application process does require you to provide an email address. This is where confirmation details, including a QR code and a PDF, will be sent after completing the application. It is important to use the official government website for the application to avoid scams.

Yes that's where you get confirmation right away for your records so you can show immigration when you arrive so they dont send you to another line to do it, ask you to step aside to do it on your phone. If you already have proof of it you get in line and they check you in.

It asks you basically everything. Give a phony email address if you are concerned about them tracking you.

bad advice, as the confirmation QR code that you need is sent to your email address that you entered on the TDAC website.

Hmmm, in that case give a real email, but abandon it right after receiving the QR code. But by this time there must surely be fraudulent QR codes that you can purchase from agents, right?

@Oswald ******
the QR code is tied into your exact passport number, as the immigration officer will be able to see it on their screen as well, so you can't use a generic QR code or one not tied to your specific online submission.

Make sure you use the "FREE" Government Online Application.

Evidently there are a few scam sites that ask for a fee.
