  1. Sorry for the delay. Yes, we can still assist with retirement visa extensions, and first-time applications. We also can still assist with opening a bank accounts in Bangkok for those intending to apply for a Non-O visa based on retirement, even if you're currently on a tourist visa or visa-exempt entry. Our 24/7 support team can be contacted by LINE ( https://tvc.co.th/line ), or EMAIL ( [email protected] ).

  3. As discussed in the thread, we agree that the best approach is for you to first apply for the extension on your own and explain your situation. If that doesn’t work, you can then look into getting further assistance.
  4. Let us know the $165 one, we can submit a change to the comparison chart.
  5. You can now just order this service directly, with your TDAC in one shot. https://tdac.agents.co.th All services are optional, and the TDAC request is free as long as you are within 72 hours of your arrival date, otherwise there may be a $8 charge to order this service ahead of time. Additionally if you are regularly going in and out of the country you have the ability to copy a previous TDAC, and use it as a base to make the process even easier.
  6. It looks more like the actual website blocked the Thailand region rather than the Thailand ISP's blocked their website (if you look at the bottom of the error page it says CloudFlare). This clearly indicates they are aware but have chosen not to update their site. Another example is https://tdac.online. They seem to be following the law, but whether the service is really worth over 1,200 THB is debatable, and is low compared to https://ivisa.com attempting to charge 2,300 THB. Still, for those short on time, it might be convenient since it allows you to apply in advance and *may* offer a responsive point of contact. Even some of our own clients have asked for this kind of service, despite us explaining to them how easy it is to apply on their own. They could have simply designed their website to be legally compliant and been in a strong position, rather than choosing to make it deliberately misleading and risk being seen as a scam.
  7. Would need to be more of a opt-in. Think checkbox where you acknowledge the fact that they are not a government service. The checkbox acts as a recorded action proving that they disclosed the nature of the service. Without this, a user could later claim they were misled.
  8. The way that site is charging you is not legal in Thailand, which is likely why they were flagged. They are required to clearly state that they are not a government provider and must obtain your explicit consent to their terms, and not straight to payment. They also fail to display any company information, which is a major red flag. Right now, their site is misleading and lacks the necessary transparency. Charging for submission services is legal in Thailand if done properly. In fact, this is clearly acknowledged on the official TDAC website. We operate the informational website tdac.in.th ( not the one that is mentioned in the announcement ). Currently, we do not provide any services, and clearly mention the TDAC is FREE. However, if we choose to offer services in the future, they will be fully transparent, clearly disclosed, and fully compliant with Thai law. EDIT: We’ve launched a convenient early application service through tdac.in.th. If you prefer to apply in advance, our team can handle the submission for you. This is especially helpful for families or travelers who want to get it done ahead of time without last-minute stress. There’s no fee for submissions made within the official 72-hour window before your arrival. However, if you'd like us to submit earlier on your behalf, a small $8 service fee applies due to the manual processing required. Also, just tick a checkbox to include eSIMs for each traveler. Everyone will have internet on arrival, and we’re working to offer the lowest eSIM prices in Thailand.
  9. We haven't seen any developments on this so far, so it seems to be just a circulating rumor for now.
  10. When applying, you can only choose an arrival date of today, or up to three days from now. We highlight the 3-day window because that’s how it was worded in the official announcement. Applying earlier is fine if you're able to, but we don't expect any issues with entry or departure if you apply less than three days before arrival ( your airline may force it, this is yet be seen ). This process replaces the TM6, which was usually filled out on arrival in Thailand. It's possible authorities may want this information earlier for coordination or logistical reasons, but in practice, it should still be fine to complete close to your travel date. What is clear is it is impossible to submit more than 3 days before your arrival date as it will be disabled. We’ve also embedded the video on https://tdac.in.th/#tdac-introduction in multiple languages, though the screenshots provide more detailed information.
  11. From what we have seen its actually instant approval, so if theres verification happening its post-approval.
  12. We have not seen this, this can happen with new DNS updates. Maybe check back later, we have tested the site from multiple regions, and it appears to be accessible. We also did a write up here with screenshots: https://tdac.in.th
  13. Yes we accept cases by secure post / signature on delivery. All payments made to us are treated as refundable deposits, and we provide a document stating this after payment. We've always issued prompt refunds whenever a client chose to cancel or when, for any reason, we were unable to complete the task. We submit cases immediately after taking them on and never delay or hold onto them. While some agents may operate differently, our approach ensures a consistently fast turnaround. As a general rule, it's wise to avoid sending money or documents to any business without verifying their physical office, business domain, or reputation. That said, our team has a proven track record and can be trusted to handle these matters with transparency and reliability.
  14. We currently assist with account setup for clients applying for Non-O ( Retirement / Marriage / Family ) visas, and the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV). If you're currently in Thailand on a tourist visa / exempt entry, we can still assist you, provided your intention is to obtain a long-term visa. Please note that for any banking services, clients must be accompanied by our staff.
