Just landed at BKK from London, according to BA, the Thai immigration claims its  no longer a requirement to fill in a TM6 anymore, it’s done ‘electronically’.

TLDR : Answer Summary

A traveler has reported confusion upon arrival at BKK, stating that British Airways claimed the TM6 form is no longer required and is handled electronically. However, the traveler disputes this, noting chaos at immigration, and comments suggest that only Thai citizens are exempt from filling out the TM6 form.

And that's how rumors get started :/

Right now the ONLY people who don't fill out TM6 arrival/departure cards are thaiz.

Things like that happen. BUT this isn't really all that thai visa related information.
