ORIGINAL POSTER
Arrived at Bangkok airport from Vietnam, already have a DTV but my first exit and re entry.

Didn’t need anything other than my passport as the DTV and TDAC is logged under the passport. I did have them available but was told they weren’t necessary (despite the signs stating to have them ready).

I was informed (by the immigration police lady) to always check the passport stamp for the re-entry date on the DTV’s as mistakes have been made (by immigration). Once you leave the airport it can be difficult if there’s is a mistake.

Her colleague on the next desk came over to see my passport and whatever it was they had visibility to on their screens as she had never had a DTV traveller herself and wanted to see.

TLDR : Answer Summary
Upon arrival at Bangkok airport from Vietnam with a DTV visa, the traveler only needed their passport for entry and re-entry, despite having their DTV and TDAC documents available. An immigration officer advised them to always check the re-entry date stamp in their passport for accuracy, as mistakes can occur. This encounter underscored the importance of being vigilant with immigration processes.
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.
