Will I have problems renewing my visa without the digital arrival card number?
THIM and TDAC notice
Need a clearer THIM and TDAC explanation? Read the THIM guide on thim.in.th.
Good morning, i am living in Thailand in Phuket on a retirement visa as a dependant of my husband sinc 20 years. Never a problem.
I just realized i deleted the screenshot of my digital.arrival card. Or perhaps i never took one.
In the application form for the visa renewal they ask for the No. of the digital arrival card.
Will i have problems??

Answer summary
The user is concerned about not having the digital arrival card number for their visa renewal in Thailand after living there on a retirement visa for 20 years. Commenters reassure them that they likely won't face issues, suggesting that the number may not be necessary, and some even mention that immigration officers may have the information on file or that it can be retrieved from online sources. There are variations in requirements depending on the immigration office, but generally, it seems the digital arrival card number is not critical for this process.

You only need it if the application form does indeed ask for Digital Arrival Card No or does it ask for TM6 No so it has not been updated?

I didn't have to provide that number in Phuket in January.

As John says they are referring to the old arrival card that you filled in on the airplane

On the Tm7 it is a redundant line.

No need at Bangkok Immigration, nor for 90 day report. But every Immigration Office may have their own rules, so to be absolutely sure you perhaps should ask in advance 😉

OPThank you all for your answers.

Just leave it blank, that field was for the old paper landing card

Didn't you get an email ? The I.D. number is in the email.
You likely won't need to even show the TDAC as the IO should have it "attached" to your "file" once they scan your passport.

Alan Rothwell good thinking

It depends on which office, here in Chiang Mai they don't need it.
Ask them instead of here.

Phil Clark Local Immigration offices don't care about the TDAC, only the border crossing you arrive at cares.
