Has anyone else not been able to fill out the Thailand address section of the electronic arrival card? The fields are there but it will not let me fill them in.

TLDR : Answer Summary
Users are encountering issues filling out the Thailand address section of the electronic arrival card, primarily because it can only be filled out within three days of arrival. Several commenters suggest verifying the address format and ensuring correct details are used as these systems can be particular. There are also tips to ensure that the departure date should not match the arrival date, which may affect the form.

Did you put a departure date in the same as the arrival date as this cancels the accommodation fields?

Districts and sub districts can be confusing if you don’t know the area

I had problems with that too, but was approved. Immigration at Bangkok airport stopped me and asked the address.

Yes done it with my condo address. You maybe not have correct details

If it won't accept the address, double check how it should be written. I checked my hotel booking for the correct address.

You should be able to look up what the system accepts. So you might find you are putting the address in incorrectly? Thai systems aren't always sensible!!

You can only fill it in within 3 days of your arrival, no earlier. So you can apply on day 3,2 or 1 or at the airport but no earlier
