ORIGINAL POSTER
Hello to everyone in the group, a Spaniard living in Cambodia. I am going to Thailand in January to renew my passport. I have read that from December/January onwards you have to fill out an online document, I think it is called etravel or something like that. Do any of you have the link and can you tell me what it is for? We Spaniards do not need a visa, we have a visa exemption for 60 days but it seems that this online document is mandatory for everyone. Thank you very much in advance for your collaboration.

TLDR : Answer Summary
A Spaniard living in Cambodia inquired about an online document called eTravel required for entering Thailand without a visa. Users commented that the eTravel document is actually an Electronic Travel Authorization for visa-exempt travelers but noted that the program is currently on hold or has been canceled, and details regarding its implementation remain uncertain.
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 tdac.in.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.

It's an Electronic Travel Authorization and is only for people traveling to Thailand without a visa.

But it is currently on indefinite hold while they figure out how to implement the system. So as of right now no one knows if or when the system will go online.
