Important Update for Travelers to Thailand


Effective Monday, 1 May 2025. All non-Thai nationals entering Thailand — by air, land, or sea — must complete the Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) online before arrival. This new digital system replaces paper forms and helps make immigration faster, easier, and more secure.


This initiative replaces the paper-based TM6 card, which has been used for over a decade to enhance the travel experience and streamline immigration procedures, and reflects a move towards modernizing entry processes, aligning with practices in many other countries.  


Travelers planning to visit Thailand on or after 1 May 2025, will be kindly requested to complete the TDAC online. The application will be accessible three days prior to arrival, beginning 28 April 2025, and is required for all foreign nationals, regardless of visa status, at no charge.
