TLDR : Answer Summary
There's uncertainty about whether the TM6 digital arrival card will be operational by May 1st when the user arrives in Bangkok. Comments from various users suggest a lack of clear information regarding the implementation date, with some speculating that the government typically provides short notice for such updates, and there's a chance of system failures. Other participants in the discussion also expressed their own travel plans and concerns regarding the card.
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.

These sites are operated by AGENTS CO., LTD., a trusted company that has served hundreds of thousands of travelers to Thailand.

The official TDAC service 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.

Is this for tourists?
Michael ********
@Diana ******
yes and long term visa holders, will probably be like the systems in Singapore and Malaysia
Diana *******
@Michael *******
so now I can’t just visit for a few weeks I must apply online? I’m coming late May.
Michael ********
@Diana ******
yes come as normal will make no difference and if anything like Singapore and Malaysia there are always people that forget and get assisted filling in. No idea when they will announce they are not very good at that.

@Diana ******
You can still visit for a few weeks. Just have to fill in the arrival card online. Same as they used to hand out on the plane. (If they implement the system)

@Brandon ***********
oh so it’s just like the old arrivals card! How do I find out when it comes into force please?

@Diana ******
Yes, TDAC is for Thailand Digital Arrival Card. It's exactly the same. But no one knows if or when it will come about.

If its anything like normal you will get between 24hrs to 48 hrs notice before implementation and then system will fail 48 hrs to 72 hrs after. TIT

My magic 8-ball says check again tomorrow. Even the Thai government doesn't know, so no one in this group will know.
