Travel Smart Travel Fast is an independent private company. You can also apply directly on the official government website. tdac.immigration.go.th

What the TDAC is

100% online โ€” submit the digital arrival card from any device before your Thailand trip.

The Thailand TDAC (Digital Arrival Card) is Thailand's mandatory digital arrival card, a visa-free entry requirement for all non-Thai nationals. Complete your Thailand TDAC application online before departure and receive your QR code, ready to show at immigration.

What you'll need

  • Passport details
  • Travel details including arrival flight and date
  • Accommodation address in Thailand
  • Purpose of travel
  • Valid email address to receive your TDAC and QR code
Processing time
Usually instant. Your TDAC and QR code are generated immediately after submission.
Validity
Valid until you arrive in Thailand for the arrival date on the TDAC.
Entries
Single entry, one-time use. Submit a new TDAC for each entry into Thailand.
At the border
Show the downloaded TDAC with QR code from your device or email to immigration at the entry checkpoint; printing is optional but recommended as backup.

Four steps, and you know all four

Most services show you three. The fourth one is real, so here it is.

  1. 01

    Your trip

    When you arrive and leave, and where to email the TDAC.

  2. 02

    Your travelers

    Passport details for everyone traveling. Photograph the passport page and we fill it in for you.

  3. 03

    Review and pay

    Choose your review speed. Every line itemized before you pay a cent.

  4. 04After payment

    Arrival details

    Airline, flight number and your address in Thailand. About 2 minutes, once your payment clears.

What it costs

The application is $99.99 per traveler, charged for at most 2 travelers. That covers a 2-hour review by a person. Faster review is optional, priced below, and never pre-selected.

  • Standard

    Reviewed and submitted within 2 hours

  • Fast

    Reviewed and submitted within 1 hour ยท per application

    +$10.00
  • Ultra Fast

    Reviewed and submitted within 15 minutes ยท per application

    +$20.00

If Thailand is not accepting the TDAC for your dates yet, we hold the application and start the clock when its window opens. Checkout shows you that date before you pay. Times are counted from the moment we can submit, not from payment. Speeds move your application up our review queue; they do not change how fast the government processes it once submitted, and they are not a guarantee of approval.

2 travelers pay $199.98, and so does a larger party: our fee stops at 2 and Thailand adds nothing on top.

What $99.99 adds to the free portal

Thailand's official portal works, and it costs nothing. Here is the difference, line by line.

Questions, answered straight

Still unsure?

A person answers on chat, 24/7, before and after you apply.

Yes. The official portal is tdac.immigration.go.th and it costs nothing. We are a paid service: we fill the form in with you, check it against Thailand's rules, submit it on the day the window opens, and keep a human on chat if anything snags. If you would rather do that yourself, do. The link is on this page.
