The new digital arrival card. Where it asks country of residence do I put my home country? I'm living in Thailand but don't think this is classed as my residence. TIA

Country of residence is the country where you currently live on a legal basis with a residence permit

Place of residence is your passport issuing country I would think

Honestly, it doesn't really matter. If you put it to match your passport it will be fine, and if you put it to Thailand once they add that as an option before it's deployed.

If it allows you to enter Thailand, then do that. Otherwise just put your passport country.
