Hi I'm in vientiane laos and I'm struggling to complete the TDAC visa application on line any tips would be welcome

Regards Danny.
Answer summary
Danny is seeking help with completing the TDAC visa application online while in Vientiane, Laos. Community members clarified that TDAC is not a visa but an arrival card that can be completed online within 3 days prior to arrival in Thailand. They suggested using the correct official link, filling out only required fields (marked with a red asterisk), and recommended using a desktop for ease of completion. Several members also debated the poster's complaint, suggesting they needed to specify their issues for better assistance.

It's not a visa application. It's simply a Thai Digital Arrival Card

1.) probably easier for you to fill in and submit the TDAC on a desktop/laptop/notebook computer or tablet than on your mobile phone/cell phone

2.) What specific issues or problems are you having in filling out and submitting a TDAC?

3.) if the input field does NOT have a Red Asterisk, then it is Optional and NOT Required so easiest to leave it blank and just skip those particular input fields

It clearly states it is NOT a visa. It is a free arrival info card done online. Done during the 3 days prior to arrival. What's difficult? Your name, passport, country, date of arriving, address of accomodation etc.

TDAC is not a visa. It's just an arrival card. More than half of the fields are not even required and you can leave them blank. You can only submit TDAC within 3 days of arrival. Here's the official link:

If for some reason you still cannot do it, you can try this agent website for TDAC. It's also free if done within 3 days of arrival, but fixes some of the UI problems.
