What is the Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC)?

The Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) is a mandatory online form introduced by the Thai government to modernize immigration procedures, replacing the outdated paper-based TM6 form. Starting May 1, 2025, all foreign travelers—whether arriving by air, land, or sea—must complete the TDAC to enter Thailand. Our service simplifies this process, ensuring a seamless and stress-free experience with secure data handling.

From backpackers wandering Chiang Mai’s vibrant night markets to families soaking up the sun on Phuket’s pristine beaches, TDAC is required for all, including visa-free travelers and those with tourist or business visas. Our platform guides you through every step, using advanced encryption to protect your data and deliver your QR code promptly via email.

Traveler Tip: Save time at busy hubs like Suvarnabhumi (BKK) or Don Mueang (DMK) by completing your TDAC with us in advance for a smooth immigration process.

Why Choose Our TDAC Service?

Thailand welcomed over 35.5 million visitors in 2024, with a target of 40 million in 2025, cementing its status as a global travel hotspot. The TDAC system streamlines immigration for this massive influx, but navigating it can be challenging, especially for first-time visitors or those unfamiliar with digital forms. Our service simplifies the process with a one-time $20 USD processing fee, offering secure payment, instant QR code delivery (if traveling within 72 hours), and dedicated support.

By choosing our platform, you avoid errors like incorrect data entry or missing the 72-hour deadline, which could delay your entry. This means more time to enjoy Thailand’s vibrant culture—think savoring spicy som tam at Bangkok’s street markets, exploring ancient temples in Ayutthaya, or diving into Krabi’s crystal waters. Our service is designed for all travelers, from solo adventurers to business professionals, ensuring a confident start to your journey.

Traveler Tip: Keep your TDAC QR code handy (digital or printed) for a seamless immigration experience at airports, land borders, or sea ports.

How to Present Your TDAC at Immigration

Once you’ve applied for your TDAC through our platform, presenting it at Thai immigration is straightforward. Whether you’re landing at major airports like Suvarnabhumi (BKK), Chiang Mai (CNX), or Phuket (HKT), or crossing land borders like Poipet (Cambodia) or Bukit Kayu Hitam (Malaysia), follow these steps:

  1. Prepare Your Documents: Have your passport and TDAC QR code ready, either on your phone or printed.
  2. Show Your QR Code: At the immigration counter, present your passport and let officers scan your TDAC QR code to verify your details.
  3. Answer Questions (if any): Be prepared to confirm your stay duration, accommodation, or purpose of visit. Thai immigration officers are generally friendly and efficient.
  4. Keep Your TDAC: Store your QR code until you leave Thailand, as you may need it for departure procedures.

Traveler Tip: Ensure your phone is charged to display your digital QR code. For faster processing, consider booking a Fast Track Immigration Service at major airports (available for a small fee).

Visa-Free Countries for Thailand in 2025

Thailand’s generous visa policies make it a top destination for travelers worldwide. As of 2025, citizens from 93 countries can enter Thailand visa-free for up to 60 days for tourism or short-term business, provided they complete the TDAC. This policy, expanded in July 2024, encourages visitors to explore Thailand’s diverse attractions, from the bustling streets of Bangkok to the serene temples of Ayutthaya.

However, discussions are ongoing about potentially reducing the visa-free period to 30 days to manage overstays. Stay informed by checking tdac.info for the latest updates before planning your trip. Here’s a snapshot of eligible countries:

Traveler Tip: If you’re from a visa-free country, ensure your passport is valid for at least six months from your entry date, and always carry your TDAC QR code when arriving.
