Sorry it went over your head, for the simple minded I really should have put "visa applications etc etc"

 

What does a visa application have to do  with the TDAC ?

Nothing, did you actually read what the original statement was replying to?

The visa field is optional. If you have a visa, you are free to leave the field blank or to give your visa number.

I'm wondering how you get to show the QR code to the IO?  

 

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

I heard a rumor that this website is going to start requiring use of the internet to access it.

If this new system is like the 90 day online application, then the "3 day rule" may cause some problems. If your ticket to Thailand is on May 31st and the system is "too busy", experiencing "problems", "down for maintenance", I'm glad they have the "facility" at the Bangkok airport to complete the arrival card.

Highly unlikely the system will be too busy for the full 3 day duration that you have to submit.

it is not a required filed.

 

 

If it shows as required, it is because you have ticked the box next to the airplane.

The ruling on flight numbers.

This is what the TDAC kiosks at Suvarnabhumi airport (BKK) look like for use foreigners who didn't do the TDAC before their arrival.

It's possible to add 2 flights number on the tdac flight number info? If the flight to Thailand has also one connecting flight before the arrival into the country. Just to avoid possible issues at the immigration

I'm pretty sure I saw an answer to this or similar question already.  The flight on the TDAC is the flight you arrive on.  That's all you need to do.  If asked for a boarding pass that is the one you will show.  You can fit 10 characters in the flight number field so you could cram 2 flights in there, but for what purpose?

So if for example you start to fly from UK, you should add UK on the country where you boarded, while you should add the connecting flight to Thailand as flight number, does it look fine like that?

I'd put the country the arriving flight came from. But suspect at the end of the day it is of no consequence.

Yesterday, I made a mock run with that TDAC sight.

 

Unlike weeks ago, it now has Thailand as the country of residence.

Just put the number of the last flight, that is all they need.

If you fly London to Bangkok on Emirates for example you just enter the flight number of the last leg: Dubai to Bangkok. No need to overthink things, just use the flight number of the flight you arrived in Thailand on.
