Hello,

If we have a flight on 9th of January from Gatwich until 23 of January when we will have our flight back. Wat exactly do we need on the entry in Thailand? Cash? How much per person or couple? TDAC? Accomodation? Do we need to have anything printed or is ok on the phone? 

Thank you!

TLDR : Answer Summary

For your entry into Thailand, you will need around 20,000 baht in cash per person or 40,000 baht for a couple, proof of accommodation booking, and an exit ticket. It's recommended to have your TDAC filled out online at least three days before travel. While having everything printed is suggested for quicker processing, having it on your phone is acceptable as well. Ensure you complete all questions required for the TDAC for a smooth immigration process.

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.

Phone is fine but I find if printed its quicker. Annoying standing waiting while someone digs out their phone then goes hunting for the required info. Some are organised some take ages
