Just entered with TDAC. Easy application except for the clumsy country drop down lists. Doesn't seem to have made any improvement on immigration but not an issue for me as my flight always arrives early morning.

Answer summary

The post discusses user experiences with the TDAC (Travel Document Application Center) for entry into Thailand, highlighting issues with selecting countries from the dropdown menu and sharing tips for a smooth application. Users noted that it was easier when starting to type instead of scrolling through the list. Comments mention experiences with required information, such as accommodation details and flight proof, with some indicating that such information was not necessary for their application. The post also offers feedback on the newly launched assisted TDAC service, which simplifies the application process for frequent travelers.

Not needed not needed just stop the laundering and they know who they are. Tourist or visa, simples. Proof of flight, proof of residence, proof of money. Why do they need someone to lie because that is what certain people from certain countries are doing. Just keep them out.

THAI ******************************

We’ve just launched our assisted TDAC service:

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

It’s available in over 70 languages, supports resume functionality, and makes repeat submissions easy for frequent travelers by allowing you to duplicate a previous TDAC.

It’s completely free if you submit within 3 days of your arrival.

If you need to submit earlier, we offer a priority service for $10, where our team will take care of it for you.

You can also access our VIP services directly through the portal.

Would like feedback on our drop downs 😁

Submitting within 3 days of your arrival is completely free for that service.

Other agents charge between 1,000 and 2,000 THB for early submissions.

With our service, you can fill out the form in advance, save your progress, and simply return to submit it once you're within the 3-day window for free as well (just make sure not to clear your cookies).

The paid service is if you want us to handle the submission for you automatically on the soonest possible date.

yeah, I had the same issue. You can't find "Germany" under "G". It is under "F" as "Federal Republic of Germany". . . . . . . . and Thailand can't be found under "T". It is "Kingdom of Thailand"
