TDAC - OK so my reading of it is that from May 1st you must submit an online TDAC, this can be done no sooner than three days before arrival but can be done any time within 3 days of arrival, so you could literally get off the plane in Thailand and make your submission before you get to passport control / immigration. As long as you get your email confirmation of TDAC before you get in front of the IO you are good to go? Is that the correct interpretation of it? TIA

Users confirm that submitting the TDAC upon landing, ideally before reaching immigration, is acceptable as long as the email confirmation is received in time. Several comments provide practical advice on using airport facilities to complete the submission.

Just made a test, entered an imagined flight dated 24 April. Got the e-mail with QR code almost immediately after pressing enter. Just wondering if this application will give a 'no-show' warning when trying to enter next real trip by the end of May

Do it on your phone while waiting on the flight. Take a photo and you are set.
