TLDR : Answer Summary
To prepare for your second entry to Thailand, you need to complete the Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) online within 3 days prior to your arrival. Ensure you have proof of your ticketed departure, at least 20,000 baht or equivalent, and proof of accommodation for your first few days in Thailand. It is also suggested to have your return flights and accommodations booked for the entire trip. Completing the TDAC may be a new requirement if it wasn't done during your previous visit.
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.

Jon, possibly you didn't complete the TDAC during your first visit as it only began a couple off months ago.

So, go onto the Thai immigration website and complete your Thailand Digital Arrivals Card. It should be completed only within 3 days prior to your entry to the country.

Ensure you make no payment for this electronic card as some are still paying 50 usd etc - it's free kf charge.

On entry to Thailand, they'll scan your passport and all your card details will appear on their database, some tourists still send a copy of the card onto their phone as proof it's even done, be we don't bother.

It's still 60 day visa exempt stamp for must countries, but you need to check for yourself.

yeah, it's a shame many don't remember back to when they had no idea about some aspects of travel and had to ask questions themselves. Enjoy your trip.

I have many times but I wasn’t sure about the new form

You entered before and do not know what to do? Like Andy Traveler said fill out the TDAC before you leave.

always good to ask, especially if they entered before the TDAC came into place.

We were there for 5 weeks this year left beginning of March back for 6 weeks next January so

Same scenario… have return flights and accommodation entire trip booked

And paid.. we were thinking perhaps get tourist visa ( have done before when 30

Days max ) just to make it easier and cover ourselves

Have proof of ticketed departure out, 20,000 baht or equivalent and proof of accommodation for first few days, in case they ask.

Nothing, complete TDAC within 3 days of arrival.
