How can I submit my TDAC application if the official website is down?
THIM and TDAC notice
Need a clearer THIM and TDAC explanation? Read the THIM guide on thim.in.th.
The official TDAC website has been experiencing issues today.
We want to remind everyone that you can also submit your TDAC through our agent portal (originally for travel agents, and tour guides):
[members only]
It’s completely free if your arrival is within 72 hours. If you need to apply earlier than 72 hours, there’s a small $8 fee, and we’ll handle the submission on your behalf at the right time.
Our system lets you save and resume drafts over several days. If there’s ever a problem with the official TDAC system when you submit, we’ll queue your application and make sure it gets approved as soon as possible.

Answer summary
Due to issues with the official TDAC website, individuals can submit their TDAC through an agent portal at https://tdac.agents.co.th. Submissions are free if made 72 hours or less before arrival. For earlier submissions, a small fee of $8 applies. The system allows for saving drafts, and any submissions facing issues will be queued for approval. Comments from users express concerns about fees, noting free submission options available through official channels, while others appreciate the convenience of the agent service.

Don’t fall for it folks. It’s free online, and you can also do it at the airport when you land if you have problems before you leave your home country. It’s a scam

please reread their very thoughtful and helpful response to the current tdac website issue.THAI ******************************

We do not charge any fee for TDAC submissions.However, if you wish to submit your application weeks or months in advance, and have our team automatically process it the moment it becomes eligible, we offer that convenience for a flat $8 fee. (which could be useful, especially if there are issues)
For submissions made within the standard 72-hour window before arrival, our service is completely free.
This announcement was created to assist travelers currently facing issues with the official system during the 72-hour window. Anyone using our portal during that period will not be charged.
Please do not compare our legitimate service to known scam sites such as "tdac.info".

Why would anyone even need to do the TDAC weeks or even months before there arrival 😳 your just trying to make money out of the dimwits out there as nobody can apply before 72 hours 😆 🤣 😂THAI ******************************
OP@Richie ******
There are actually a few valid reasons people choose to submit early:1) Time and convenience – Some travelers are busy or coordinating group trips, and prefer to get it done in advance so it’s one less thing to worry about right before departure.
2) System issues – Just like we've seen recently, the official site can go down or have problems. Submitting early avoids last-minute stress or delays at the airport.
3) Group submissions – Our system was originally built for tour guides and agents handling large groups. The official site limits you to 10 people per submission and kicks you out if there's a hiccup. Ours handles 100+ in one go, and lets you download everything in one click.
4) Support – We offer dedicated help in case something goes wrong, and many travelers appreciate that peace of mind.
So no, it's not about "dimwits" – it’s about options, flexibility, and avoiding headaches.

It’s a no it’s an online form but a lot of people don’t want to fill it out themselves. It’s like me when I go to Vietnam. I just have somebody else do it for me and I pay the fees just convenience and then I’m glad that they’re offering it as a convenienceespecially only for eight dollars

Yes, we originally built this portal for travel agents and tour guides who regularly need to submit groups of 20 or more travelers.The official system currently limits submissions to 10 at a time, and if there's any server issue during the process, you're forced to start over from scratch.
Our system avoids that frustration entirely. You can submit up to 100 travelers in a single go, with no risk of losing your progress.

It's a choice.

Read the website of the Thai Embassy in your country, and you will see how to make it for free.

c'est un Agence pour les gens qui ont peur de les nouveaux règles. Ils précisent que il est gratuit par le site de la gouvernement. Pendant/ après le COVID beaucoup de gens passait par agence pour l'autorisation . la site de gouvernement était déborder et marcher pas bien. Ça causait des angoisses de pouvoir par partir sans l autorisation nécessaires.Betty *********
Sinon je pense que ce site gouvermental marche bien et gratuit .

Can't wait to send you $8 X six of us traveling, thank you for your service

@everyone Reminder this is FREE if you submit within 72 hours of your arrival date. But you technically can just fill it out, and wait a week to submit for FREE as well because the form will not clear.
