Thailand's entry rules

There's one TDAC every visitor to Thailand needs, no matter which passport you hold or how you arrive.

Thailand TDAC

Digital Arrival Card

Thailand's TDAC — its Digital Arrival Card — is the mandatory online arrival form for every foreign national, required whichever passport you carry and however you enter — by air, by land or by sea. File it before you fly, and you'll get your confirmation and QR code back by email at once, ready to show at the border the moment you land.

What you'll need

a valid passport, your arrival flight and date, the address where you'll be staying in Thailand, a way for us to reach you directly, and an email address so we can send over your confirmation.

Four steps, no surprises along the way

Most services stop counting at three. We spell out the honest fourth part too.

  1. 01

    Your travelers

    Passport details for everyone on the trip. Photograph the passport data page and we handle the typing.

  2. 02

    Your trip

    When you arrive and depart, and the inbox that should receive your finished Digital Arrival Card.

  3. 03

    Review and pay

    Pick your review speed, see every charge listed, and pay once you agree with the total.

  4. 04After payment

    Specialist review & delivery

    A specialist reviews every field, we file it inside your window, and confirmation lands in your inbox.

What it costs

$59.99 per traveler, whatever the destination or arrival card. A specialist reviews it and we file within about a business day, with two quicker tiers waiting at checkout.

What $59.99 adds

A specialist carries the load

  • Automated checks flag anything that doesn't match Thailand's current requirements, and a human signs off before it's sent.
  • Start whenever you like — we hold your form and file it the moment the submission window opens.
  • When the official portal glitches or bounces a submission, we keep retrying until it goes through.
  • We scan your passport, validate the details instantly, and put a real person on chat if anything stalls.
  • A single review covers your whole travel party at once, instead of a separate attempt per traveler.

Going it alone

tdac.immigration.go.th (free)

  • Free and open any time, and we link to it from every destination page.
  • Expect maintenance windows and timeouts; if it drops your session, the retry is on you.
  • Tracking when your own submission window opens is on you, and it changes with each trip.
  • Mistype a passport number and it is yours to notice, often only at the airport counter.
  • Every traveler needs a brand-new form, and there's no one to call if a box confuses you.

How fast we review and submit

A person checks every application before it goes out. Standard is already part of your price, and two quicker tiers wait at checkout with nothing pre-selected.

Our clock starts once we're able to submit, not at checkout. Thailand's own window only opens 72 hours before arrival, so we queue every application ahead of that and start timing the moment it opens — you'll see that date before paying. A faster tier moves you up our own internal queue; it won't make the authorities work through your file any quicker once it's lodged, and it's never a promise of entry.

There's no separate Thai government charge on top of the TDAC fee, so our price is the whole bill. The only optional add-on at checkout is a travel eSIM, and each line appears on your receipt before checkout.

Real questions Thailand travelers ask us

Just one: the TDAC, Thailand's Digital Arrival Card. It's required from every foreign national arriving by air, by land or by sea, including children — travelers only staying airside in transit without clearing immigration are exempt. It isn't a visa, so any visa your nationality needs stays a separate step alongside it.
