Coming through immigration last week I watched as many people were sent to the side of the immigration counter to fill out the TDAC.

They either thought they would get it done in time in the queue or just didn’t do it, so they wasted everyone’s time by arriving at the immigration counter totally unprepared.

Others meanwhile were fussing about with it whilst trying to hold their place in line, much to the annoyance of other travellers.

Don’t be those people!

Canada. You don’t officially enter South Korea so that isn’t your country of origin, nor is it required on the health declaration.

still 60 for now. There’s been no official announcement on any changes.

@Mark *******

yes, you get the QR code in the email and a PDF document if you want to print it.

I would just go in and edit your application. Then at the end it should send you another email.

I had issues yesterday too. I filled everything out then after I received the email I discovered I messed up my middle name.

Filled out a new form but didn’t get a new email. I went to edit the new form a few times, saved it (without changing anything) and eventually got an email after about the third attempt!

You’re way too early. Three days prior is the maximum.

I fly out and arrive in Thailand on Thursday and the earliest I could do the form was yesterday (Monday).

Just go to the nearest immigration office, pay 1900THB and get another 30 days

It doesn’t have to be exactly 3 days, you can do it anytime within 3 days of arrival.

There are a number of medical questions, some of which would be useless if answered two weeks prior, hence the narrow timeframe.

Do what every other kiwi does, get a job in Australia!!!

Yes you can do it upon arrival, but I would try and get it done prior. There is a chance that kiosks set up to help will be busy with everyone else who forgot, didn’t know, or procrastinated and the last thing you want is another queue to join!

Sure you could use the airports wifi on your own device, but do you really want to risk a technical issue at that crucial moment?!

Chances are that at some point you will be sitting in an airport somewhere else in the world, waiting to board your flight to Thailand. Use that time as an opportunity to get the paperwork sorted if you haven’t done so already.
