FYI... this appeared on a forum today about the ease of using the New TDAC Arrival Card

"Sharing my experience in case others are worried.

My arrival in Thailand is scheduled for May 1st. Initial concerns regarding the Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) application proved unfounded. The process was completed in under five minutes; the application was simple and straightforward. The email confirmation/QR code were received immediately, with a convenient download option also provided after submission. The entire experience was seamless and straightforward."

May holidays.

Be aware that immigration offices around the country will be closed on the following dates during May.

Monday 5th May

Friday 9th May

Monday 12th May.

Border points aren’t affected by holidays.

Will the new TDAC forms need to be printed out or will a screenshot work for entry after May 1?

Retirement advise for Australians.

My mum and her partner are wanting to retire in Pattaya.

Both have diabetes, one has been in hospital for an extended period in Aus at least once a year if not more. How likely is insurance going to be to cover them ? If they do , what sort of costs would they be looking at ?

Without insurance how much would say a month long stay in hospital cost?

They know they’d have to travel back for diabetes medications due to cost in Thailand but any other information would be greatly appreciated.

Hi all sorry if this has been asked already i did try search, do I need to fill in a TDAC before may 1st if im already in Thailand but about to pass that date? Or is it just for entering and as im here already I dont need to? Thanks 🙏🏻

We are a British couple (over 50) who have taken early retirement and are considering relocating to Koh Samui.

We currently live in Northern Cyprus so do not have access to a Thai Embassy/Consulate in order to apply in person for a 90 non immigrant O visa prior to arriving in Thailand.

I have looked at the Thai E-Visa website to try to apply online but I cannot see this visa type as an option (just a long stay OA visa or a Tourist visa).

My question is if we arrive on an initial 60 day Tourist visa will I be able to open a bank account with this visa type, in order to then meet the financial requirements to apply in Koh Samui for the non immigrant O visa, and subsequent extension?

To @administration. you need to block Richard Parker, he is harassing me, and giving false Visa information. If you dont block him, I will report you to the Thai Immigration Bureau for allowing fake news on your VISA ADVICE page.

Good morning lovely people!

I need some accurate information on Visas including 6 months one. And correct pricing etc. Anyone here that can guide me. Much appreciated

Hello everyone, I want to go to Satun Visa Run tomorrow. Which company has seats please.

I remember a post/video somewhere saying that Thailand would start some sort of electronic check in (immigraton wise) where you would enter your stay information (hotels, entry/exit info, etc). Later I heard that is was postponed. Does anyone know of this and it's status?

I am planning to visit Thailand later this month and I cannot find anything about it online. Thanks in advance.
