Hi, does anyone know, does the new TDAC, have a time limit?, I read it's 30 days, on a 60 day+30 day on entry visa, that doesn't make sense. I'm assuming it's OK. Also if you're doing a border run (Cambodia), after your 90 days, do you still have to do another DTAC on line, beforehand, while you're still in Thailand?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The TDAC (Thailand Digital Arrival Card) must be submitted within three days of your arrival in Thailand, and a new one is required each time you enter the country. There is no connection between the TDAC and visa durations such as 30 or 90 days. If you are considering a border run to Cambodia after your initial stay, you do not need to submit another TDAC while still in Thailand.
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.

Also make sure you're using the official TDAC website (there are a LOT of clone sites by companies out there)

You are very confused. The TDAC is an arrival document. Nothing to do with your visa

Nothing to do with 60 days or 30 days or 90 days. Itโ€™s got to do with when you arrive and must be completed within three days of your arrival unless you hold a Thai passport.

TDAC is a one time entry digital arrival card, every time you enter you submit a new one even if you leave and enter 3 times per day
