When filling out the TDAC, which country should I indicate as the country of entry? I am boarding in Russia but have a 10-hour layover in China, and my second flight will be from China; I am not leaving the transit area.

AnonymousAnonymousMay 28th, 2025 3:08 AM
In your situation, your second flight likely has a different flight number. Because of this, you will need to select China and the corresponding flight number for your TDAC as the country of departure.

If a Thai passport has expired for 7 months and I use a British passport to enter Thailand, do I need to fill out TDAC?

For TDAC, if you are Thai but enter the country using a UK passport, you will need to fill out TDAC for the same reason you will receive a visa stamp.

Just select the UK as the country in your passport.

International students holding a student visa are going to Malaysia for a holiday on the 21st and will return to Thailand to continue working. However, the system requires them to fill in the return flight details after completing their internship (in July), but since that is still a long way off, they haven't booked a return ticket yet. What should they do?

AnonymousAnonymousMay 23rd, 2025 9:18 PM
For the information on the departure date from Thailand in the TDAC form, it is not necessary to fill it out if the student has accommodation in Thailand and will stay for more than 1 day.

The departure date information only needs to be filled out if the student does not have accommodation information in Thailand, such as if it is a transit flight or if they are only staying for 1 day.

Therefore, if they do not have plans to book a return ticket at the end of the internship, they can leave the departure date blank without any issues.

You don’t need to cancel your TDAC application. Your family members should still be able to enter Thailand without any problems, even though the applications were submitted together.

If there’s any issue at the airport, they can fill out a new TDAC there. Another option is to resubmit a new TDAC for them just to be safe.

Everywhere we are told that this TDAC is free of charge. However, I was charged 18 US dollars, can someone tell me why?

AnonymousAnonymousMay 21st, 2025 9:42 PM
If you were charged $18, it’s likely because you selected both the early submission service ($8) and a $10 eSIM during checkout.

Please note that eSIMs are not free, and submitting the TDAC more than 72 hours in advance requires assistance. That’s why agents charge a small service fee for early processing.

If you submit within the 72-hour window, it's 100% free.

Yes, regardless of what type of visa you hold or if you have a work permit, if you are a foreigner traveling to Thailand, you must fill out the Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) every time you enter the country, including cases where you go on a business trip and return within a few days. The TDAC replaces the old form TM6 entirely.
