What should I do if I lost my TM6 form before leaving Thailand for Vietnam?

TM6 TDAC Thailand visa immigration expats in Thailand travel procedures

THIM and TDAC notice

Need a clearer THIM and TDAC explanation? Read the THIM guide on thim.in.th.

Good Morning,

I arrived in Feb and either didn't receive a TM6 or have lost it.

I'm going to fly out to Vietnam next week for a few days, does anyone know if I'll be issued a replacement TM6 at the airport?

I presume I wont fill out the TDAC for the first time until I'm due to return to Thailand?

Thank you for any info, I'm a little lost.

Answer summary

The user is inquiring about the TM6 form, which they either did not receive or lost upon arrival in Thailand. They want to know if they can get a replacement TM6 at the airport before their upcoming trip to Vietnam. From the comments, it's clarified that the TM6 form is not issued at airports for air travelers; instead, travelers must complete the TDAC form prior to returning to Thailand. Many responses confirm that the TM6 is not necessary for their situation, and they just need to fill out the TDAC form before re-entering Thailand.

There wasn't and still isn't TM6 at airports. You'll file a TDAC upon each entry, from May onwards.

No tm6 at airports, I've flown in and out of thailand 20+ over the last 2 years and never seen that.

Do the tdac up to 3 days before you fly. Lots of people forget and do it once they arrive in thailand before lining up for immigration

I guess you would only have got one if you arrived at a border crossing. You don't get a TM6 when arriving by air

There were only a couple of land borders that still used TM6 before the TDAC. Airports haven't used it for years.

There was no TM6 in February so you are good to go. Nothing to worry about. Fill in the TM6 replacement ie the TDAC up to 72 hours before return. No need to fill in departure info. Enjoy Vietnam.

Thank you, so other than filling out the TDAC before I return to Thailand I only really need my passport and (rarely but possibly) proof of funds in bank and Visa?

Anonymous participant Yeah - I doubt you will need proof of funds either.
