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.

No, it’s one TDAC per person. They cost nothing and take only a few minutes to complete.

It’s a border entry document. You’re already past that point so you’ll be fine!

@John *******

that’s what I’m referring to. They can’t let you fill out the form early because there are health related questions that you couldn’t possibly answer two or three weeks prior to arrival.

It includes a number of medical questions that cannot be answered weeks in advance.

Because, and I say this with respect, you probably speak it with a heavy Indian accent. Even if you don’t, without hearing you speak they’re going to assume that you do.

A heavy or thick accent can make it more difficult for those learning English to fully understand what you are saying. Even native english speakers can struggle to understand people speaking English with a thick accent, so imagine how hard it would be for someone learning the language.

It’s the same reason you won’t find many Scottish English teachers!

@Andrew *******

Toyota (to name one) has a factory there. It’s the primary production line of the Hilux.

doesn’t sound very legal.

They’re drop down boxes so just pick whatever option best matches the address.
