What should I do if I arrive in Thailand without a completed TDAC?

It’s so easy I done with in 2 mins and get email right away

Is 19th the date you leave Thailand ? It’s the departure box you are showing us.

Will not accept form if you try to fill out earlier that 3 days before you travel

You can do there.

Done that 3 times now

Fill out the form on arrival at the kiosk

Leave it blank.

Just keep it blank for the departure . I never put departure date as still not sure how long will been in the kingdom

You'll be asked to fill one out and go back to the end of the line I imagine

I forgot about doing mine and managed to do it before reaching the front of the queue. I saw others being sent to the side to complete before re-joining the line.

The departure date isn’t even required

Be sure to only set your arrival time only 72 hours in advance (three days)otherwise the system will not accept it✈️

You can't fill it out until 48 hours before you depart.

Fill it in at the airport

Has to be a troll

Have you tried to put the year at last? 😳

Er du sikker på du er på den rigtige side... har lavet det nogen gange nu... ingen problemer...

Click the almanac to the right instead of entering the digits yourself

Theres screens before the Immigration desks but you'll end up stood there watching 1000's of people walk by to Immigration ahead of you.

Thailand uses day/month/year

You fill it and then you are let inside the Kingdom!

Close all the tabs on your phone and delete your browser history, start the application again. This happened to me for days and this was the only thing that worked..

I did not have any issues. What the system did do was Grey out my resident location on arrival and I was able to enter where I would stay. That caused a small issue at imagration

You can’t fill it out too early ahead of time

Possibly 3 days before arrival

I think it is the order you have the date entered.

Switch browsers

What’s the mode of transport for arrival and departure please I will be coming over normally fill out on paper form

The new system has facial recon as you pass through, this will immediatly flag if you havent completed the on line arrival card.

This once tourists realize this mean if completed you will be able to walk straight through.

For a un- known period yes you can complete it on arrival, however this is not a long term option or their isnt any point in it.

I am new to this. Can someone please send me the link to do it please

My travel agent will fill mine in for me.

The wue was over 1200 when I arrived last Wednesday

You can fill in the form at the airport but its better to do it earlier.

Date of departure is the date when you are leaving Thailand.

When you come up the ramp, on the far left of it there is a section taped off that you follow and then you sit behind screens with someone to help you fill it out, I went in December and lots of Brits didn't have it filled out as weren't aware of it so I saw them come out the que and go over to the left side,

Put the 19 where the 1 is

Select the date from the calendar dropdown icon. Because you are typing it in the format is being registered in the box as text rather than a date selection its a bug in their code. It should have a placeholder message saying click calendar icon to select date and a restriction measure to stop you selecting the box to type in it

Really? Really?? You’ve got to be a Yank. 🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦🤦

You’re too early. Can only be filled in 3 days prior departure. If you arrive without TDAC, you’ll have to fill it in at a machine at the airport.

You can fill in a TAC at the airport

Pas besoin de rappeler que c'est dans les 72 heures avant l'arrivée 🤔

Vois savez sue ce n'est que dans les

Day/month/year ?

Yes it is not the best of forms. Clear the date until the format statement is displayed. You can not submit the form or include a date that is more than 3 days before your intended flight/arrival/ Much depends on your time zone. Try again.

Its tdac computers at airpoirt but take long time.

Departure!! Not required!!!

On the dates are you using the provided calendar I think you can't just put the dates in

It means date of departure FROM Thailand

Wow

You need to pick using the calendar. Can't type.

Sinceramente io sono arrivato a bankok una decina di giorni fa, e ha me non me lo hanno neanche chiesto

There is a separate aisle for DTAC completed and DTAC not completed with screens to use if you haven't filled in at BKK

Why arrive without?

Online is easy, follow the instructions. Instant reply in email.

Lines to fill in tdac can be long at the airport.

Beware of scamsites that want to proces it for you and asking 20 dollar for fast services. Usually the first ones on, Google.

Only one you need is from: tdac immigration go th. Instant reply after submitting.

Straight to the monkey House.

It literally tell you what's wrong what don't you understand?

Not required, unless you click in the field.

Don't drink anymore

As you’ve posted 2 hours ago and Today is the 17th Jan and you are saying you are departing on 19th Jan .. so try again with correct info

I was just there and there was no one to help but should you complete it customs will have it once you scan your passport. But there was no one there to help.

Hey guys I have a question. I will be in thailand with my wife for 3 weeks but we planning to stay in Bangkok for 4 days then Krabi and pattaya. Do I need to show booking for hotel for all these places or just for Bangkok will be fine. Thank you.

We have a free one that is a bit more reliable here:



But please note if you apply earlier than the 72 hour window there is a small $8 fee.

Ask AI

Departure card (TDAC) is a digital version of what you used to fill in on the plane - you can't fill it in until about 3 days before you arrive.

it is FREE - if someone wants your money IT IS A SCAM!

On arrival you will see TDAC stations where you can fill in your form before immigration and passport control.

Don't queue for passport control until you've filled it in.

026

Been out 3 times since they introduced this TDAC, on 2 occasions they didnt ask to see it and 3rd time I asked if they wanted to ? " No, it's in the system, was the reply.

You can do it at the airport

One million baht fine 5 year in prison and deportation 😂no u should be okay without it , they will help u do it

Make sure its only 3 days before arriving. Or it wont process

I think you may be manually putting the date into the date field. Click on the calendar icon and adjust the date via that.

Try putting your departure date and arrival date the same it doesn't confuse the computer and enables you to move on

Mine showed Day-month-year.

Only fill in boxes with an asterix.

Troppa burocrazia 😈

You can do it when you arrive. To fix your format problem, click on the calendar and shoose the date from there to have the desired format

Leave that line blank it’s not a required line

😅🤣😂

Simm Sima . . NOTE: The "Visa Number" and "Departure" from Thailand are NOT mandatory required fields- you can leave them blank.

BUT: As soon as you click on one of these fields not marked with a red *asterisk or start typing, an error message will appear if you don't fill out anything else. Then you would have to cancel everything and start over.

Jesus Christ why can't you listen to people

That is the date of Departure from Thailand. I made that mistake too and was so frustrated lol.

At don mueng you can lay 200bht and staff do for you

For every entry into Thailand, non-Thai citizens are required to have completed the TDAC, regardless of whether they have a visa or an existing stay permit.

The TDAC is not a visa. The electronic TDAC is just replacing the former TM6 arrival & departure paper card you used to fill out aboard your flight before you entered Thailand.

You can fill out and submit the TDAC (Thailand Digital Arrival Card) starting three days/72 hours before your planned entry; it only takes five minutes on your home computer, it takes a little bit longer on the smartphone

It's important not to fall for fraudulent websites that charge a fee for the TDAC—they're all scammers. The official TDAC is free of charge. The correct ending of the link has to be “go” and “th”

Open the official website and simply fill it out pro forma.

Create a note or a Word .doc document on your computer with the requested information, e.g., passport number, name and address in your home country, primary address in Thailand, and so on.

Then, starting up from three days/72 hours before your planned entry, you can copy and paste the information into the TDAC—it only takes two minutes!

NOTE: The "Visa Number" and "Departure" from Thailand are NOT mandatory required fields- you can leave them blank.

BUT: As soon as you click on one of these fields not marked with a red *asterisk or start typing, an error message will appear if you don't fill out anything else. Then you would have to cancel everything and start over.

The TDAC confirmation will reach your email inbox shortly after you have submitted the form. You should print out this email confirmation, as it contains a QR-code. Mainly expats who apply every year for their annual “extension of stay permit”, should print it out, because a printed and signed copy of the TDAC could be a part of the document submission on Immigration

If you don't have to present the printed TDAC at the immigration counter, it doesn't mean anything - the border official will see the TDAC you submitted on his/her computer screen as soon as they scan your passport, so they won't ask again

The TDAC is not a visa, it is only an information you give Thai authorities about your person, your arrival information and your place of stay.

Assuming you haven't completed a TDAC, they won't let you enter the country but will send you back to the terminals in front of the Immigration desks with a request to submit it.

You have to apply within 3 days before

I had a return ticket booked but did not fill this out on tdac, immigration asked me to prove I had a return flight booked

U only have to complete the spaces that are mandatory with the red (*) asterisk .

Flew 5 days ago airline I used asked for for it so suspect they wouldn't let you fly without it

Your leaving Thailand on the 19th?? I'm assuming your putting the arrival date in? Have another go... 😉

It's /2026. Day then month and year I would think

There are machines just before immigration where you can file the TDAC. There’s a helper there if you need any assistance.

Doing it now, yourself on you phone is just as easy. Only fill in the mandatory fields, liked stated from other replies.

My friend arrived today and they didn’t ask him for funds or the dtac at all.

Ask the officer standing at the beginning of the line. He can help you.

You only need to complete these mandatory fields; plus e-mail and where you’ve stayed last two weeks. (No yellow fever areas). Departure is optional.

I am coming soon on a non O visa ( retirement )and extending for 12 months. What would I put as a departure date ??

You can just leave the departure date blank, it's not a required field (unless you click in it)

You can fill out the form on arrival

You are putting a departure date not arrival date

Departure is the date you are leaving Thailand, not the date you depart for Thailand. Departure date can never be earlier than arrival date.
