THIM and TDAC notice
Need a clearer THIM and TDAC explanation? Read the THIM guide on thim.in.th.
Just entered Thailand for the first time on my DTV through Suvarnabhumi, and happy to report no issues. Handed the IO my passport, passport sized copy of my DTV, and boarding pass. There was no request to see my TDAC. She stamped me with an out date of March 30, 2026.
Answer summary
A new entrant to Thailand on a DTV visa reported a smooth entry experience at Suvarnabhumi Airport. The individual presented their passport, a copy of the DTV, and a boarding pass, with no request for additional documents like the TDAC. They received a stamp valid until March 30, 2026. Some comments suggest that the experience for DTV holders may vary, emphasizing the importance of being prepared for changes in regulations and account-related issues.

Enjoy the “no issue” while it lasts … Unfortunately many DTV holders were reporting “no issue” with their thaï bank accounts just 1 month ago… Things can change very quickly in Thailand. Be ready

The latest "fetish" in the DTV-Community... lamination. Just a printout (even a downsized one) isn't good enough anymore... it has to be laminated to be successful... 😁James ********
