Tips before you apply

• Fill in the TDAC only on the official Thai government system; it is free.
• Keep your return ticket handy – immigration may ask to see it.
• If your trip runs past 30 days, sort out an e-Visa before you travel rather than relying on an extension.
• Rules for Indian travellers changed in 2026, so re-check the embassy page close to departure.
