When applying for COE with Thai pass they ask for the date you enter Thailand. Do you use the date you fly or the date you land

Thanks

TLDR : Answer Summary
When applying for the Thailand Pass, you should use the date you land in Thailand as the entry date, not the date your flight takes off. The comments emphasize that you enter Thailand upon landing.

The date you entered Thailand... It's self explanatory. You're not in Thailand when your flight takes off
