Frequently asked questions
Did Thailand end the 60-day visa exemption?
Yes. The revised measures effective 15 September 2026 revoked the general 60-day scheme and introduced updated 30-day and 15-day schemes.
Is TDAC a visa?
No. TDAC is a digital arrival card. It does not replace a visa or visa exemption.
Does this checker guarantee entry?
No. It summarizes published rules for trip planning. Immigration officers decide admission and the permitted stay.
