Phuket Arrival Card

Planning a trip from the Philippines to Phuket? Before your flight, complete the free Thailand Digital Arrival Card (TDAC), which replaces the old paper TM6 arrival card. This guide explains when and how to submit it, which documents Filipino travelers need, and what to expect upon arrival at Phuket International Airport for a smoother entry.

❤️ Pro Tip: When planning your trip, consider booking your flights Manila to Phuket and Phuket hotels early to secure better rates and more choices.

What Is the Phuket Arrival Card?

What Is the Phuket Arrival Card?

Source: Thailand Digital Arrival Card Official Website

The Phuket arrival card is not a separate form used only in Phuket. It is part of Thailand’s nationwide Digital Arrival Card system, known as TDAC.

Thailand introduced the TDAC on May 1, 2025, replacing the paper TM6 arrival card. All non-Thai travelers entering Thailand by air, land, or sea must generally complete it before reaching immigration. The form collects your passport details, travel plans, accommodation address, contact information, and recent travel history.

The TDAC is only an arrival registration. It is not a visa and does not guarantee permission to enter Thailand. Immigration officers still make the final entry decision.

Pro Tip: If you are planning a trip soon, look for flights to Phuket early so you can get better prices and more schedule options.

Do Filipino Travelers Need the Phuket Arrival Card?

Do You Need the Phuket Arrival Card?

Yes. Filipino passport holders must complete the TDAC before entering Thailand, even when traveling under the visa exemption scheme.

The requirement also applies to:

  • Adults traveling for holidays or business
  • Infants and children
  • Travelers holding Thai tourist or long-term visas
  • Travelers entering by air, land, or sea
  • Travelers returning to Thailand after visiting another destination

Families can submit information for up to 10 travelers in one group application. However, each person will still receive an individual TDAC record.

Who Does Not Need a TDAC?

The TDAC is generally not required for:

  • Thai nationals
  • Airline or transport crew
  • Airside transit passengers who do not pass through Thai immigration

Travelers holding a Thailand Privilege Card are still foreign nationals and should complete the TDAC.

Do Filipinos Need a Visa for Phuket?

As of July 22, 2026, Filipino ordinary passport holders remain eligible to enter Thailand without a visa for stays of up to 60 days. However, Thailand has approved a new visa framework that may reduce the visa-exempt stay to 30 days. The change is still awaiting publication in the Royal Gazette and will take effect 15 days after publication.

Filipino travelers should check the latest Thai Embassy or Ministry of Foreign Affairs announcement shortly before departure.

Remember that visa-free entry and TDAC registration are separate requirements. Even if you do not need a Thai visa, you must still submit the TDAC.

Phuket Entry Requirements for Filipino Travelers

Prepare the following documents before flying to Phuket:

  • Philippine passport valid for at least six months from your arrival date
  • Completed TDAC with the confirmation QR code
  • Visa or proof of visa-exempt eligibility
  • Confirmed return or onward ticket
  • Phuket hotel reservation or accommodation details
  • Full address of your first accommodation in Thailand
  • Evidence of sufficient travel funds, if requested
  • Supporting documents showing the purpose of your visit, when applicable

Thai immigration officers may request proof of funds during entry screening. For certain visa-exempt entries, the stated amount is THB10,000 per person or THB20,000 per family. Children below 12 years old are excluded from this requirement.

🎉 Pro Tip: Filipino passengers should also complete the Philippine eTravel form within 72 hours before departing the Philippines. TDAC is for entering Thailand, while eTravel is a separate Philippine travel declaration.
🏨 Pro Tip: Don’t forget to look for Phuket hotels near major attractions to make your sightseeing more convenient!

When Should You Complete the Phuket TDAC?

Submit the TDAC within three days before your arrival in Thailand, including your arrival date.

For example, if you will arrive in Phuket on July 22, you may complete the form on July 20, 21, or 22. Completing it one or two days before departure is recommended so you have time to check your information and save the confirmation.

Kiosks and Wi-Fi may be available at Phuket International Airport for travelers who cannot complete the form beforehand. However, filling it in after landing may delay your immigration clearance.

The TDAC form cannot be saved halfway. Prepare all your information before starting.

Phuket Arrival Process at Phuket International Airport

Phuket International Airport

1. Follow the International Arrivals Signs

After leaving the aircraft, follow the signs for International Arrivals and Passport Control. Keep your passport and TDAC confirmation ready.

2. Proceed to Immigration

Filipino travelers entering under the current visa exemption scheme do not need to visit the Visa on Arrival counter. Proceed to the immigration lanes indicated by airport staff.

Present your:

  • Passport
  • TDAC QR code, if requested
  • Return ticket or hotel booking, if requested
  • Proof of funds, if requested

Phuket introduced automated passport channels for international departures on June 13, 2026. The official announcement did not confirm that all foreign visitors could use automated gates for arrival clearance. Follow the latest airport signs and instructions instead of assuming you can use an arrival e-gate.

3. Collect Your Baggage

After immigration, check the airport information screens for your flight number and baggage carousel. Free luggage trolleys are normally available in the baggage claim area.

4. Clear Customs

Choose the green channel if you have nothing to declare and are within Thailand’s duty-free limits.

Choose the red channel if you have restricted goods, commercial items, excess alcohol or tobacco, or anything that requires declaration.

Customs officers may scan or inspect baggage based on risk assessment.

5. Enter the Arrivals Hall

After customs, you will reach the public arrivals area. Taxi counters, airport transfer desks, SIM card shops, ATMs, and currency exchange services are available inside the terminal.

Honestly, this hotel deserves no more than a 3-star rating. And the 3-star is only for the location. All the other things deserve 1-star. The only positives are its location and the lobby. Everything else was disappointing. The furniture is very old and of poor quality, the bed was extremely uncomfortable, and the bathroom had a constant unpleasant smell. The room had almost no soundproofing. Even though we were staying on the 11th floor, we could clearly hear traffic from the street, passing cars, and children playing in the pool as if the window were open. The room door was also made of very poor-quality wood, so every time someone walked through the hallway, we could hear their footsteps, doors slamming, and loud banging noises. There was never a moment of peace and quiet—between the traffic, the noise from other guests due to the lack of soundproofing, constant door slamming, and even sounds coming from the pipes inside the walls. I swear I can hear the mans cough and talking in the next room.. We also asked the hotel if they could store just one suitcase for us while we traveled to Phuket and returned to Bangkok. They refused, saying they would only do so if we had another reservation with them. I have stayed at lower-rated hotels that happily stored our luggage even though we were not coming back, so this was disappointing. We also asked if they could extend our checkout by just two hours since our flight was at 2:00 PM, but they refused without offering any flexibility. Overall, I would never stay at this hotel again, and I would not recommend it to anyone.

Riverside Bangkok|2.99km from city center
This was my first time staying at a riverside hotel. After 5 nights in the city center, we moved here for two nights. The website mentioned a shuttle boat service from the pier near the subway station to the hotel. However, there were no signs at the pier indicating where to catch the hotel's shuttle. There was just a big guy sitting there, so I took a chance and asked him. He told us to just wait there, and a boat would come every half hour. After waiting for nearly 40 minutes, a hotel staff member approached us to say there was no boat and drove us to the hotel instead. Apparently, there's a two-hour lunch break in the middle of the day when no boats operate. This information should have been clearly stated on the website. Having to wait in such hot weather, just the experience of getting to the hotel was already quite frustrating. Fortunately, after checking in and getting to our room, the impression was quite good. The room was spacious, clean, and tidy, with river and pool views, which immediately lifted my spirits. We had breakfast at the hotel both mornings, and it was alright. On checkout day, there was a boat available, shuttling us back to the subway station pier. At least we got to cruise along the Chao Phraya River, concluding our trip to Thailand.

This is the most ceremonial hotel I've stayed at in Bangkok. There were welcome fruits, desserts, and little elephant toys. The room was very spacious, perfect for a family stay. It's also convenient for getting to the airport, and there's a 7-Eleven nearby, with Champion Cafe just a few minutes' walk away. Especially the staff member Boat, who was incredibly responsive to all our requests. My child loved the animal toys and would get a new one upon returning. The next day, when I mentioned wanting a surprise, he decorated the bed with fresh flowers, making it feel like a honeymoon.

Chidlom Bangkok|2.5km from city center
Talk about a 'Lost in Thailand' real-life scenario! My flight was delayed, so I didn't get to the hotel until after 1 AM. All I wanted was to shower and sleep, but first, my key card wouldn't work, and I couldn't get the elevator to go up. A staff member used her master key to take me to the room. Once we got there, it was pitch black. She hadn't brought a key card to activate the power. I tried to explain in English, but she must not have understood. So, she went back down to get a key card, leaving my child and me in a dark, hot, and exhausting room. Finally, with the power on, I thought I could shower and sleep. But then I noticed the 'disposable' slippers looked like they'd been used for a month – they were pilled and even had hair inside. On top of that, the lighting was strange; the room's decor was very dark. The bed was incredibly hard, and the curtains didn't close properly, letting light in. The bed faced east, which felt odd. The air conditioning was deafeningly loud, like the outdoor unit was inside the room. Even on the lowest setting, it was booming. I didn't sleep a wink. It was too noisy with the AC on and too hot with it off, so I ended up turning it on and off six or seven times throughout the night. The next day, I switched rooms, and it was much better, though the AC was still quite loud. Luckily, it wasn't too hot with it off, so I just left it off. The hotel's location is good; it's a ten-minute walk to Central Department Store, which is great for shopping and dining. There's also a big mall five minutes away, and several 7-Elevens right across from the hotel. The pool is small and didn't look very clean, probably because it's older. The service, however, was quite good. The staff always had smiles, and the bellhops proactively helped with luggage, with a dedicated staff member opening doors. Overall, the first night was a bad experience, but after changing rooms, I was quite satisfied. The hotel even did turn-down service and changed towels on the second night, which was a nice touch. I really hope they provide new disposable slippers for every guest; otherwise, I'm worried about hygiene, especially with foot infections. I remember seeing news about the Marriott group allegedly reusing disposable slippers.

The hotel's location is great, less than 300 meters from the subway station. The hotel itself is quite upscale and grand, and the room facilities are comprehensive.

Although the hotel is a bit older, it's very clean. The staff are all incredibly friendly and attentive, always smiling. The hotel environment is also excellent, and the pool is beautiful. The Japanese-style architecture in the atrium is quite unique. What really stood out this time was the package deal: two hours of unlimited cocktails, beer, wine, and snacks from 5:00 PM to 7:00 PM daily at the poolside bar or The Junction. This was fantastic value, and the snacks were plentiful. Breakfast was also very extensive. The dining vouchers provided by the hotel were also a great deal. I highly recommend booking a package. My only complaint is that the Trip.com staff were very unprofessional and impatient during the booking process. After we bought the package, it was upgraded later, but Trip.com offered no help at all. We had to contact the hotel directly to upgrade our package.

Facilities: You can tell this is a very old hotel, but it's huge and feels like a maze inside.

Cleanliness: Given the price, the cleanliness was acceptable. The room was standard, and the soundproofing was just okay.

I absolutely enjoyed the stay so much I wanted to extend my trip because of this hotel! The service was top notch, similar to the experience I had at a luxury hotel in Singapore! The receptionist accompanies you to the room, pointing out the different facilities and where you are able to find everything! This hotel is also the tallest in Chinatown, so the sunset view is gorgeous at the very top, where there is a 360 panoramic view in a revolving restaurant and bar. However, I enjoyed the 17th level bar even more, as they have a nostalgia set when I was there, costing only 450 baht for soup, salad, pizza and 2 pints of beer! P.S Colouring my hair (roots) was 800baht at the salon downstairs, look for TangMo! She did a wonderful job and even threw in hair treatment at this price! Lots of food nearby, with 7-11 across the street. The markets are open both day and night, so no matter what time you wake, you are able to shop and eat just a street away.

My stay at the Asia Hotel in Bangkok, an older downtown hotel, was quite pleasant. While the facilities show their age, the place was clean and comfortable overall. The bedding was soft and made for a good night's sleep, though the only minor drawback was the slightly noisy air conditioning. The location is definitely the biggest highlight. It's right next to the city's BTS Skytrain, making it incredibly convenient for shopping in the Siam area. Plus, there are 7-Eleven stores at both the front and back entrances, so grabbing snacks and daily necessities is super easy. The alley behind the hotel also hides several authentic local eateries, which really enhanced the dining and exploring experience. The front desk staff and housekeeping were friendly and attentive. All in all, it offers great value for money, and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Bangkok for shopping.

1000 baht deposit. Corner room on the 23rd floor. It was clean, with new furniture and a spacious room. The bathroom had everything except a comb and razor. The toiletries were good. The towels were old but clean. There were bathrobes, but they weren't hung up as usual; they were in the closet, so it took a while to find them. Four bottles of water were provided. The soundproofing was good. The plumbing was old but functional. The hotel itself is old, but they try to keep it in good condition. The breakfast on the 81st floor was varied. We booked dinner on the 78th floor, which was also decent. Downsides: The bed was old and the mattress was terrible. The hairdryer was old and not powerful enough to dry hair. It's fine for one night, but for a longer stay, you'd need to consider it. It was impossible to get a taxi; they wouldn't come because the area is congested.

We had a nice experience here! Compliments especially to the friendly doorman — he left such an impression on me because he greeted us so enthusiastically every day. Check-in was quick and easy. Our room was clean and spacious, the bed was comfy, the shower hot with good water pressure, and they had actual conditioner. WiFi was fast, and housekeeping was thorough every day and kept replacing our amenities even though we didn’t need it, lol. Plus we had a great view of the amazing city view nearby. So beautiful! Location was beyond excellent! Close to both the Nana BTS, and has a private turnaround area for taxis/Grabs, so take your pick really. This particular combination is kind of rare, actually, since the two systems don’t overlap a lot. We picked this location over Sukhumvit at Nana because it’s closer to all of the places. There is also a small night market nearby, both of the food and the flesh variety, though the latter is easily avoidable if you wish (it’s not seedy tho). To be honest, the night market felt really touristy and the options were quite limited. There were also a loooot of malls and massage places in the vicinity, of all varieties and price points.

Sukhumvit Bangkok|5.41km from city center
Addressed to Jon Warmington, the General Manager I recently stayed at Grand Mercure Bangkok Atrium room 842 from 27 May to 1 June and would like to share some feedback regarding my experience. First and foremost, I would like to emphasize that I genuinely enjoyed my stay. The hotel, facilities, and the majority of the team members provided excellent service, and overall I had a pleasant experience. In fact, I am not the type of guest who frequently raises complaints. During my travels, I spend very little time in my hotel room. Most of my day is spent outside the property, and my interaction with the hotel is generally limited to breakfast and sleeping. As such, it takes a significant issue for me to feel compelled to formally raise a concern. The first issue relates to breakfast. During my stay, I invited a Muslim friend to join me for breakfast. He entered the restaurant with me but did not consume any food because he was unable to find suitable options that met his dietary requirements. While I acknowledge that I did not raise this directly with the restaurant team at the time, I was surprised when Reception later informed me that they had verified that my friend had taken breakfast. From my perspective, entering the restaurant should not automatically be considered as consuming breakfast when no food was actually taken. Nevertheless, I have decided to let this matter rest and move on. The second issue is far more serious and is the primary reason for this email. On my final night at the hotel, I was expecting a visitor. However, Reception did not contact me to verify whether I was expecting anyone before allowing my visitor access to the guest floors. Instead, my visitor was simply directed to my room and arrived at my door unannounced. Having worked within the Accor group for approximately 15 years as a Duty Manager in Singapore, I am very familiar with hotel operational procedures, guest privacy standards, and security protocols. It has always been my understanding that when a visitor arrives for an in-house guest, Reception should first contact the guest to obtain authorization before granting access to the room floors. While my visitor was indeed expected on this occasion, Reception had no way of knowing that without contacting me first. Had the visitor not been known to me, this could have resulted in a serious security and privacy issue. In my professional opinion, allowing a visitor direct access to a guest room without prior verification is unacceptable and falls short of the standards expected from an Accor property. What further disappointed me was the handling of the matter after I raised my concern. I wish to be clear that I am not seeking compensation of any kind. My concern is not financial. Rather, I expect an appropriate resolution and acknowledgement of the seriousness of the issue. Simply being told ”sorry” was not sufficient given the nature of the security lapse. The alternatives presented to me by the Night Manager were also, in my view, unreasonable. One option was for me to move to another room on my final night. Considering that I was due to check out the following morning, I found this solution impractical and disruptive. Being asked to pack my belongings and relocate because of an issue that was not caused by me did not seem to be an appropriate resolution. I was also informed that a Reception Manager would speak with me. However, I was unable to wait indefinitely for the manager's arrival. As a guest who was raising a legitimate concern, I do not believe I should have been expected to delay my evening plans or remain available for an uncertain period of time. Furthermore, I was scheduled to leave the hotel at 7:00 AM the next morning in order to arrive at the airport early for my flight. For these reasons, I felt that the issue was not properly addressed during my stay, which is why I am bringing it directly to your attention. I am raising this matter not only as a guest but also

Our family stayed in two rooms with balconies on the 9th floor (the lowest residential hotel floor). We had a pleasant city view, though higher floors might offer a better one. The living room and bedroom were spacious, the beds comfortable, and the linens nice. We didn't have bathtubs in our rooms, even though we expected them from the photos. The soundproofing was good, but the air conditioners were very noisy, even on the lowest setting, which could be disruptive. Housekeeping was daily and high-quality. There are only two elevators, so we sometimes had to wait a while. Breakfast wasn't included, but we tried it twice for 400 baht. It was generally varied, with European and Thai options, and quite tasty. However, there are many alternative dining options in the area for that price. The pool is quite large, and the water isn't chlorinated but seems to be acidified with something – I'm not sure what it was, but everyone seemed fine after swimming. We specifically chose this location, so everything was satisfactory, with the metro just a few steps away. We might consider returning next time.

I stayed at this hotel for a business trip in May and had a good experience, so I re-booked the same hotel for another business trip in July. However, this time the service was exceptionally bad. When I booked the hotel on July 8th, I specifically requested two separate beds. Five minutes later, I received confirmation from the hotel acknowledging our request. On July 14th at 7 PM, we arrived at the hotel to check in, and they told us there were no twin rooms available and expected two grown men to share a king-sized bed. Isn't that ridiculous? We immediately called Ctrip to mediate, but the communication was fruitless. The hotel refused to switch us to a twin room, citing full occupancy. They then suggested we add an extra bed (for 1177 THB per night, which is about 240 RMB). They also said that our request was 'subject to availability' and if they had it, they'd provide it, but if not, there was nothing they could do. What kind of excuse is that? We clearly stated our request when placing the order, and when you confirmed my booking, it implied you understood this requirement. Hotel bookings are made with prior knowledge of requests, not with a last-minute 'subject to availability' clause. If you couldn't provide it, you shouldn't have confirmed my order in the first place. It was clearly the hotel's mistake, yet they wouldn't switch our room and expected the customer to bear the extra cost for an additional bed due to their error. Since our booking was non-refundable and it was late, we didn't have time to find an alternative hotel. Ultimately, we ended up paying an additional 4708 THB / 960 RMB (for 4 nights). Ctrip eventually reimbursed us for the extra bed, but the hotel's behavior was completely outrageous and frankly disgusting.

The hotel's breakfast menu changes daily and the food tastes good. The room is clean, bright, and has plenty of mirrors, which is convenient for doing makeup. The only downsides are the unstable water pressure in the shower and the lack of hooks in the shower room to hang towels. There's also a mini-fridge, kitchen, and washing machine. The hotel offers a shuttle bus, a 24-hour pool, and a gym. They even have social nights on Wednesdays and Fridays. The front desk staff are very friendly. The hotel is located in Thong Lo, near many famous restaurants and cafes, and it's just a 7-minute walk to the BTS station.

I had a wonderful stay at Staybridge Suites Bangkok Sukhumvit by IHG and I would highly recommend this hotel to anyone visiting Bangkok. The onsen is absolutely amazing ♨️ — very clean, relaxing, and well-maintained. It was the perfect place to unwind after a long day of exploring the city. The front office staff were extremely helpful and professional 🙌. I had a midnight flight and requested a late check-out. Not only did they accommodate my request, but they also allowed me to use the onsen to shower again before heading to the airport. This thoughtful service made my travel experience much more comfortable and stress-free ✈️. The room was spotless and very well equipped 🧼. I especially appreciated the washing machine with dryer, which is very convenient for longer stays or hot weather in Bangkok. The buffet breakfast exceeded my expectations 🍳. There was a great mix of Japanese dishes and Thai local food, offering plenty of variety every morning. The quality of the food was excellent and definitely up to standard, with many delicious choices to enjoy. Overall, this hotel provides excellent service, great facilities, and high-quality food. I will definitely stay here again on my next trip to Bangkok ❤️.

I had a wonderful stay at SILQ Hotel and would highly recommend it. The room was incredibly spacious and the bed was one of the most comfortable I’ve ever slept in. One detail I loved was the scent; the room smelled amazing every time I returned from the heat outside—it felt like a true sanctuary. The staff were exceptional and went above and beyond, helping us with our needs and even coordinating with our Grab drivers to ensure everything went smoothly. The food on-site was also delicious! The only minor thing to note is that it isn’t right next to the BTS (about a 7-10 minute walk), but the quality of the stay makes that walk totally worth it. Definitely a 5-star experience!

It's right in the heart of Sukhumvit, just a short walk to both BTS Asok and the MRT station, making it super convenient for getting around and shopping. The rooms are spacious and clean, and the bedding is wonderfully soft and comfortable. Daily housekeeping is meticulous and thorough. The staff are warm, attentive, and incredibly responsive – truly heartwarming service. The pool on the fourth floor has a fantastic vibe, and the rooftop bar offers stunning panoramic views of Bangkok's dazzling nightscape. Breakfast is diverse, with a great selection of both Thai and Western dishes.

Decided to come for a spontaneous drink, and the owner even played some music (Pic 1), totally boosting the good vibes! I also left a 20 baht tip and a note for housekeeping, and they'll wrap up a little elephant for you 😝. At 11 PM, the hotel restaurant was packed with Thais, super loud! Yep, my mom doesn't have to worry about me getting drunk anymore because my room is right outside. Turn left at the hotel exit and you'll hit a whole street of nail salons; you can get a manicure for 300 baht (about 60 RMB) 💅🏻. Right across from the nail salon street is the night market (be careful, some vendors there don't give change). I'm having the best time in Bangkok!!! Right outside the hotel are three massage parlors, one after another. A one-hour neck and shoulder massage is 350 baht. I love this world! I'll definitely stay at this hotel again next time!

TGreat Location, Good Value, and a Nice Pool I recently stayed at Furama Silom Bangkok and overall had a pleasant experience. The hotel’s biggest strengths are its excellent location, reasonable pricing, and rooftop pool with fantastic city views. The property is conveniently located in the Silom area, making it easy to access restaurants, street food, shopping, public transportation, and nightlife. For travelers looking for a central base in Bangkok without spending too much, it offers very good value for money. The rooftop pool was one of the highlights of my stay. It provides a relaxing atmosphere and beautiful views of the Bangkok skyline, especially during sunset. The rooms were spacious and comfortable, offering good value for the price paid. The staff were generally polite and helpful when needed, although the service was fairly standard rather than exceptional. Check-in and daily interactions were smooth, but there was nothing particularly memorable about the service experience. That said, the hotel would benefit from some renovations and maintenance updates. Certain areas of the property appear dated, and some room facilities could be improved to meet modern expectations. While everything was functional, refreshing the interiors would significantly enhance the overall guest experience. Overall, Furama Silom remains a solid choice for travelers seeking a well-located hotel with good facilities at a fair price. With some improvements and modernization, it could be an even better place to stay in Bangkok.

Just two blocks down from the hotel, there's a street full of massage parlors and a Big C. The location is truly superb. 2. The cleanliness of the room was very satisfying. The air conditioning was cold enough, and the shower water pressure was good, though it's a pity there was no bathtub. Disposable toothbrushes were provided, but you need to bring your own comb. The walk-in closet was well-situated. The room had triple-prong outlets, and the bedside table featured a Bluetooth speaker alarm clock with USB ports 👍🏻. 3. The gym facilities are comprehensive, and the area is very clean. The pool is a bit small, but there's ample space for sunbathing, and a bar nearby where you can order drinks. 4. The hotel offers a breakfast buffet, but the selection of food was rather limited, and the taste was just average. If you have to pay extra for it, I'd suggest opting for other dining options.

There were stain marks on the walls and the sink was also stained. However, the duvet and bedsheets were quite clean. On the second night, the housekeeper forgot to provide towels, so I called reception to request some. But after a long wait, no one brought them up, so my partner had to go down to get them himself.
