Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) Introduction
The Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) is an online form that has replaced the paper-based TM6 arrival card. It provides convenience for all foreigners entering Thailand by air, land, or sea. The TDAC is used to submit entry information and health declaration details before arriving in the country, as authorized by the Ministry of Public Health of Thailand.
All foreigners entering Thailand are required to submit the Thailand Digital Arrival Card before their arrival, with the exception of foreigners transiting or transferring in Thailand without going through immigration control and foreigners entering Thailand using a Border Pass.
Foreigners should submit their arrival card information within 3 days before arriving in Thailand, including the date of arrival. This allows sufficient time for processing and verification of the information provided.
The official TDAC is FREE with instant approval when submitted within 72 hours of arrival. Our early submission service is available for trips planned in advance.
The TDAC system streamlines the entry process by digitizing information collection. The system offers individual submission for solo travelers and group submission for families or groups traveling together. Submitted information can be updated anytime before travel.
