I know there is now a new requirement to enter Thailand. I have a passport and plan to stay 90 days. What new paperwork do I need to enter the country?
Answer summary
To enter Thailand for a 90-day stay with a passport, you will need to complete the TDAC (Thailand Pass) online form, which is free and must be filled out within 72 hours prior to arrival. If you are a US passport holder, you can enter Thailand under a 60-day visa exemption and apply for an additional 30-day extension, but you might need an onward ticket depending on airline requirements. Alternatively, if you are over 50, you can apply for a 90-day Non-O visa through a Thai embassy before travel, which does not require an onward ticket or an extension.

Nothing if you have already stayed close to 150 days already in Thailand. Without knowing details of your stay in Thailand, it is not possible to speculate anything.

With a US passport, you may enter Thailand on a 60-day visa exemption and apply for a 30-day local extension. You will formally need an onward ticket within the initial 60 days you are stamped in for if the airline requests it at check-in.

Alternatively, if you are over 50, you may apply for a 90-day Non-O visa through the Thai embassy before travelling. This visa is exempt from onward-ticket requirements, and no extension is needed.

In all cases, you will also need to complete the TDAC electronic arrival card within 72 hours prior to arriving in Thailand.
