Thailand Digital Arrival Card for Indonesian citizens: The easy way to get it done

If you're an Indonesian citizen planning a trip to Thailand, there's one important step to complete before departure: the Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC). This digital form has replaced the TM6 paper form and is required for foreign travelers entering the country.

We’ve made it easier to complete your TDAC online before you travel. You just need a few minutes, and you're done.

What is the Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC)?

The Thailand Digital Arrival Card is a required online immigration form for travelers entering Thailand. It collects basic details about your identity, trip, and stay.

Once it's submitted, your Digital Arrival Card is valid for one single entry into Thailand. We’ll send the completed form to you via email.

Thailand Digital Arrival Card requirements for Indonesian travelers

1. A valid Indonesian passport: Your passport must be valid for at least six months beyond your arrival date. Be careful to enter your passport number exactly as it appears.

2. Personal details: Include your full name, nationality, phone number, and email address.

3. Travel plans: You’ll need to enter your arrival and departure dates, how you’re entering Thailand (such as by plane or car), your flight or vehicle number, and your reason for travel.

4. Accommodation in Thailand: You must provide the full address of where you’ll be staying. This can be a hotel, apartment, or guesthouse.

5. Health declarations (if needed): Depending on where you’ve been before arriving in Thailand, you may be asked to show proof of certain vaccinations, such as yellow fever.

How to apply for the Thailand Digital Arrival Card as an Indonesian citizen

What Indonesian travelers should know before submitting the TDAC

Once your TDAC is submitted, you can still update most of the information, such as your arrival date or hotel address, if your plans change. However, you won’t be able to edit your full name, passport number, nationality, or date of birth. If these need correction, you’ll have to submit a new form.
