Hi everyone! I’m on the DTV visa (Workation category) and have a couple of quick questions about the new Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC):

1. For “Country/Territory of Residence”, should I select Thailand if I rent an apartment here and live in Thailand full-time (no residence anywhere else)? Or should I still put my passport country?

2. For “Purpose of Travel”, is it best to select “Holiday”, since we don’t have a Thai work permit? Or is there a better option for DTV visa holders?

Have any of you entered Thailand after the TDAC was implemented while holding a DTV visa, and what did you do? If you have something else to recommend, please do let me know. Thanks in advance for any advice!

Hey folks, for DTV holders who arrived after May 1st, what did you select under "purpose of travel" in the TDAC?

I've been in and out multiple times already but this week will be my first time arriving after the TDAC became mandatory.

TDAC

If you live in Thailand, what do you put for purpose of travel on the TDAC? I see holiday, education, sport, etc... on it so not sure what to choose
