In a couple of days I am going to fill out the tdac online. I am on a non-o based on retirement one year extension with a multiple entry permit. I am going to use the Visa input box on the tdac in lieu of an ongoing ticket. I want to use the Visa number off the multiple entry permit that I'm curious as to which number to use as there are two numbers. One number is part of the stamp and in the same color and the other number is a handwritten ink number. I'm assuming that this handwritten black ink number is the actual Visa number. Can you clarify this for me anybody. Thank you in advance

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user seeks clarification on which Visa number to use on the TDAC for a multiple entry permit associated with a Non-O Visa based on retirement. They note two numbers on the permit, one stamped and another handwritten, and question which one to provide. Responses suggest that filling in the Visa number is voluntary, and mention using the handwritten number is common practice. Others affirm that not all information is necessary for the TDAC.
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 tdac.in.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.

Just don't bother filling in any of the not-required fields. Your TDAC has nothing to do with an ongoing ticket. You're not required to fill in visa number, and you're not required to fill in departing flight information. It's called an arrival card and your arrival details are the only required fields.

No need to apologize, just ignore the muppets that don't understand the definition of advice.

You do not need to fill in any visa number. It is a voluntary question. There is no red* on that question.

Does it ask for a visa number? I didn't see that.

I saw it ask for type of visa I think, but not a number. Maybe I didn't notice.
