What's the latest on the TM6 and ETA online forms?

[kwilco]

TM6 is meant to start in May and the WTA in June - Is the ETA actually gonna happen then?

Thai authorities and websites don't seem to mix very well.

Why do these threads continue to be started.

Just wait for any update.

Would not be an issue for travel plans.

I'm actually asking if there have been any updates - It appears you don't know

Very much could affect travel plans as the system is very likely not going to work.

You guys who keep asking about the ETA are really over thinking this.  It will be no big deal.  Lots of countries have similar systems and many people don't know about them until they checkin for their flight.  They usually take about a minute to complete on your phone.

I said ETA, but same thing applies to the TM6.  Anyone spending a second thinking about it is over thinking it.  The TM6 was just a slip of paper that the IO gave you.  Why worry about it?

I wouldn't think too much about on how to fill out an online tm6(tdac) it is very easy. Basically is the same as you have done before when you arrived to Thailand. It would only take a few minutes, just put your personal information, flights, accomodation address, etc. About ETA, it has to be done on the e-visa website I think, but it should be easy as well, just put some information, as if you have to apply for a tourist visa

No real update however this article covers the planned introduction.

Nothing currently set/announced.

 

 

Pretty much summed up in last sentence of the article.....

 

"However, with just weeks to go, the uncertainty around its implementation underscores the oft-cited adage—"the devil is in the details"—as stakeholders await further clarifications."

Its not passed and ratified by parliament so its not legal

Depends if you’ve got a dodgy history or not.
