Good news story!! 🥳 After reading all the horror stories about entry I was FULLY prepared for a showdown and a million questions when entering through BKK airport today.

I was on a connecting flight to Samui so went through the connecting flights immigration desk.

I handed in my TDAC and DTV, had ZERO questions asked, took a few mins and I now have a 6 month stamp 🥳

I hope you all have a peaceful and easy peasy entry too!

TLDR : Answer Summary

Comments from others included quick entry stories, advice on being prepared, and excitement about first-time entries.
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.
