Will the TM6 digital arrival card be up and running befor the 1st of may as I land in Bangkok 0930 in the morning of the 1st of may
Summary so far
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.

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

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.

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)

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.
