If someone finds the TDAC process difficult, it may be risky for them to travel without assistance in general.
In the situation you described, they likely used a travel agent, who can now help with the TDAC—something that wasn’t possible before with the TM6, which often caused confusion.
Thankfully, the TDAC can be completed before departure, but the bigger issue may be how such travelers will manage once they arrive, like figuring out how to take a taxi to their hotel.
Our team can handle everything for you when arriving on a Tourist visa, or Exempt Entry.
The total cost is ฿50,000, broken down as follows:
- ฿13,000 for bank account opening
- ฿23,000 for a 3-month Non-O visa
- ฿14,000 for the 1-year extension
However, if you apply for the Non-O visa from your home country and arrive in Thailand with it already in hand, you might be able to open a bank account yourself and skip the first row listed costs.
We also offer a expedited service where we do everything in one day for you all through Chaengwattana immigration.
For Bangkok we offer door to door services, and if you are outside of bangkok, and already have a bank account we can service you by secure post.
