I got a DTV (Destination Thailand Visa) about two weeks ago and had planned to fly to Thailand next week. Unfortunately, it looks like I won’t be able to make the trip.
With a regular tourist visa, you usually have to enter the country within 3 months — but this one says “valid from May 10 until…” and I’m not sure what that means exactly in terms of deadlines.
Does anyone know if my visa will become invalid if I don’t enter Thailand within those 3 months? Would appreciate any insight. 🙏
What, if you have a DTV but just want to enter Thailand for a two week vacation on this occasion, NOT for a Muay Thai course or a cooking class, but just to relax. Do you have to ask for the visa exempt stamp or enter on DTV regardless?
Please make sure to fill out the TDAC form before entering Thailand.
Today (May 2) at Suvarnabhumi, they only asked me to show the passport and TDAC—nothing else was questioned. All they said was "Oh you hold DTV. Enjoy and don't forget to fill TDAC next time too."
If you haven’t filled it out online before reaching immigration, they’ll ask you to do it first. Quite a lot of people hadn’t completed the TDAC form. It seems like the line at the TDAC filling area is even longer than at immigration.
The TDAC is essentially a digital form that replaces the traditional TM6. It allows travellers to fill out and submit all necessary entry information before they even leave home.
The form is quick to complete (once you know what you need), and it includes:
Personal Details: Full name, date of birth, nationality, passport number.
Health Declaration: A few basic questions to support ongoing health and safety screening protocols.
You’ll need to complete the form within 72 hours of your scheduled arrival in Thailand. Once submitted, you’ll receive a confirmation email or QR code, which must be shown—alongside your passport—when you land
