Yes, you can leave the field "Visa No." blank, regardless whether or not you have a visa. Personally, when I have a visa, I shall enter its number in the TDAC form and show the immigration official a printout of the visa.

I would leave the field "Visa No." blank because the number of the re-entry permit is not a visa number.

Because you are arriving with a valid re-entry permit, not with a valid visa, and because data entry for the field "Visa No." is not compulsory, you are free to leave that field empty. That's what I would do in your situation.

Did the fact that you "saw no one getting turned away" at immigration at the airport lead you to conclude that "the TDAC seemed to be confusing mess at immigration"?

"No one asked me for anything" What, if anything, did you give or show to the immigration official without his asking for it?

I made a mistake there, meant to type CHE for Confœderatio Helvetica (although Swiss Confederation will correctly pop up)

Your "12 month retirement extension" is an extension of your temporary permission to stay in Thailand and for immigration purposes your country of residence is not Thailand. However, it is unlikely that indicating Thailand in that field will get you into any trouble.

For "Country of residence", the trick is to type the first three letters of the country name, eg gre for Great Britain produces a pop-up with a few county names that includes Great Britain; uni for United Kingdom gives a list that is too short to include that name, but continue trying and unit brings up the list that includes United Kingdom. Of course, if I happen to know the ISO three-letter country code, eg SWI for Switzerland or GBR for Great Britain, this is the most direct way to fill in the field for the country of residence. (Lower-case letters are also accepted for the codes)

I noticed the same on my phone. The trick is not to try to scroll, but to type the first three letters of the nationality, eg swi for Swiss, bri for British.

I have not yet seen an official list of required documents for an extension of stay based on a DTV. Could you post a copy of the list you received from the Jomtien immigration office, please?

It is the day of arrival and the previous three days.

Yes, you cannot.

This is what the TDAC kiosks at Suvarnabhumi airport (BKK) look like for use foreigners who didn't do the TDAC before their arrival. Photo copied from a post in the Thailand News forum.

Tell the immigration official you entered the data on the TDAC kiosk, and he will know what to do

This topic is exclusively above how to get a TIN (Tax Identification Number) It is not about the requirement — or the lack of it — to pay taxes. There are several other topics discussing this.
