Why is my health check stating 'pending' for Thailand entry?

THIM and TDAC notice
Need a clearer THIM and TDAC explanation? Read the THIM guide on thim.in.th.

Hi

I've entered all my trip details then done the health check and it's come up with this??
Answer summary
The user is inquiring why their health check within the THIM app is showing 'pending' status, and various comments clarify that this is due to the system's rule allowing the final health declaration to be submitted only 72 hours before arrival in Thailand. Users explain that before this time, the app will notify them via email when they can complete the submission, emphasizing that no health certificate is needed unless they have traveled through an affected area.

Bii Noni No. You can still enter visa-exempt with ZERO paperwork or declarations, and do the TDAC online within 3 days of arrival.

72 hours before arrival you can enter the health information. After that you are good to go.

even using the official THIM App, TDAC still only has a 3 Daya Before Actual Arrival Entry into Thailand window, and since today is Saturday, 13 June 2026 and your intended Arrival Date for Entry into Thailand is Thursday, 18 June 2026, then the THIM App would show pending:

Check again on Monday, 15 June 2026 as it will be within TDAC's 3 Days before Arrival window what the status in the THIM App will Update to show

If you have filled in everything and your trip is

Reminder to fill in a health declaration 72 hours before you fly back into Thailand

It has come up with this because it will only let you finish the declaration 3 days before you enter. So the sysem will email you at 3 days at this point you can finish the submission which is the health declaration, nothing to worry about it just wont let you say you are ok until the 3 day before marker

Have you traveled through a yellow fever area, or are from Uganda or DRC? If the former you need a certificate, if the latter you will probably be sent to quarantine

this is not the case the system will allow you to prefill your details but will not let you do the final health declaration until the 3 day submission rule. At 3 days the system emails you to finish off the tdac which is the declaration and then it will submit. If you havent visited a country that requires health certicate then you just say no and it submits

Markus Daniel May one assume you are entering visa-exempt ?

If so, may I ask why you used THIM ?

Rather than just showing up ? And having done the TDAC separately within 72 hours of arrival ?

TIA
