Well first time having to try to submit a TDAC after a short visit back to uk.

What an absolute shoddy website for submission trying to complete with an iPhone. I have given up after 4 attempts of trying to complete. Drop boxes don’t work and once you get to that stage and have to refresh all the submitted info is lost.

Will try on the laptop later .

Edit… did it on the laptop was easy, less than 5mins with all the information to hand.

Submitting a printed TDAC for an application to an extension?

Yesterday, I read a report that initially puzzled me.

You all know and are aware of the requirement to fill out and submit the TDAC (Thailand Digital Arrival Card), which has been in effect since May 1, 2025. It can be completed starting 72 hours before your planned arrival in Thailand.

As soon as you receive the TDAC QR code via email, you should definitely print it out and take it with you. Why is that?

You won't be explicitly asked for it at the immigration counter anymore, because the immigration officer can see it on their computer screen after scanning your passport. And you can theoretically show it on your phone.

BUT:

According to a recent report, Immigration will require a copy of the TDAC signed by you in blue ink, when applying for the next one-year extension of stay. And most likely soon, the same when applying for the 30-day tourist extension.

To date (August 16, 2025), there has only been one report on this. However, I am expecting more of those to appear.

It's somewhat understandable, because previously, you had to present your TM6 departure card when applying for the one-year extension of stay, and the same applied when one applied for the 30-day touristic extension.

When the TM6 was abolished almost three years ago for air travel and later also for land travel, I had to react.

I had long since removed the fact that you no longer had to present the TM6 departure card from my consultation templates – and now it will probably be added back to the list of requirements of the various immigration offices as proof of a completed TDAC.

By informing people about this, I can at least prevent you from having to leave the immigration office empty-handed if they ask for a printout of your TDAC and you unfortunately don't have it with you on this day

Be prepared and always expect the unexpected

About to come in on my dtv visa for the first time what did you all need to show when you came in?

Hi what is the situation on the visa I need to Arrive in Thailand from the UK 🇬🇧 I believe I need to submit an online application 48 hrs before travel TIA

I recently got my Elite visa. I want to ask what I need to do every time I get in. TDAC is for sure. And then the TM30 too? What else?

Hello

With DTV, do we still need to have TDAC?

Thanks

Now that I have received my Non-OA visa, am I still required to purchase a return or onward ticket for entry into Thailand?

Based on previous comments, I'm wondering whether I still need to obtain an e-permit?

Thanks.

I lost all my TDAC information. Where can I retrieve my TDAC number to update my trip details? If you know, please let me know.

Hi Everyone. Can I get a family TDAC for me and my son or do I have to apply separately? Thanks

Hello. We will be arriving in Thailand with a flight departing from Marseille and a layover in Amsterdam. Which country of origin should we put on the TDAC? France or the Netherlands? Thank you all.
