Hi.

I am flying into Bangkok from Australia on Saturday 9th.

I just completed my TDAC and received success tick.

How long before I should expect the email confirmation?

TLDR : Answer Summary
After completing the TDAC process for arriving in Thailand, users typically expect to receive their email confirmation almost instantly or within a few minutes. Many commenters reported getting their confirmation within seconds to a maximum of five minutes. However, if the email is not found in the inbox, it is advisable to check the spam or junk folder. If there are issues, other users suggested using alternative methods to ensure document delivery.
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.

Can you do the digital visa on arrival or must it be done before you go?

@Gavin *********
nothing to do with a visa. it's an upgrade of the old tm6

@Gavin *********
it's not a visa. It's just your arrival info.

Which site did you do your TDAC on ?
THAI ******************************
If you haven’t received your document within 5 minutes, and it’s not in your spam folder, the system likely encountered an error and you will not receive the document.

As an alternative, you can use our TDAC system, which is also FREE for arrivals within 72 hours:

********************************


Our form is more straightforward, and we guarantee your documents will be delivered. If there’s ever a system issue, our platform will automatically reattempt delivery until it’s successful.

You can also use this form to order Fast Track / Pre-screening services if you need this to avoid any arrival issues.

@Jan **************
are you saying I should wait and will definitely receive it before I fly
Paul ***********
@David ********
You can go back into the TDAC that you completed and click the edit button. First check that your email address is correct and check all other details. If everything checks, then add a full stop after something and resubmit it. If you don’t get an email after that, then something is amiss.
THAI ******************************
@David ********
If you did not receive it within 5 minutes, and it is not in your spam folder then you will never get the document, as the system has errored.
