Thailand has introduced the Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC), an easy-to-use online form designed to replace the traditional paper-based arrival card. This digital process simplifies entry for all foreigners arriving by air, land, or sea.
What is TDAC?
The Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) allows travelers to conveniently submit their entry details and health declaration information electronically before arriving in Thailand. This form is officially authorized by the Ministry of Public Health, ensuring smoother immigration processes upon arrival.
Who Needs to Submit the TDAC?
All foreign nationals planning to enter Thailand must complete the TDAC prior to their arrival. However, exceptions include:
- Travelers transiting or transferring without passing through immigration.
- Travelers using a Border Pass.
When Should You Submit?
Travelers should submit their TDAC information at least 3 days before their planned arrival date in Thailand.
How to Submit Your TDAC:
- Visit the Immigration Bureau’s official website: http://tdac.immigration.go.th
- Select your preferred submission method:
- Individual submission
- Group submission
You may update your submitted details anytime prior to your travel date.
Information You Need to Prepare:

Important Notes:
- All entries must be in English.
- For dropdown menus, typing at least three characters will automatically suggest the relevant options.
- The TDAC form is not a visa and cannot substitute visa requirements.
