Thailand Travel Update: New Digital Arrival Card Required Starting May 1, 2025

Effective May 1, 2025, the Thai government has introduced a new requirement for all non-Thai nationals entering Thailand by air, land, or sea: travelers must now complete the Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC) online prior to arrival.

This digital process replaces the traditional paper arrival/departure form, aiming to streamline immigration procedures and enhance security for all visitors.

What You Need to Know:

• Who: All non-Thai travelers

• When: Starting May 1, 2025

• Where: All points of entry (airports, land borders, and sea ports)

• How: Complete the TDAC online via the official website https://tdac.immigration.go.th

• Deadline: Registration must be completed within 3 days before arrival
