For people who are currently doing remote work on the DTV visa for 6+ months already, are you salaried, do you freelance or did you register your own company in Thailand?

I'm currently salaried at a Dutch company and wondering if I can keep doing remote work on a salaried basis even if I want to move to Thailand semi-long term (3-5 years). Thanks!

Hi everyone! Has anyone successfully obtained a DTV using rental income as their main source of income? From what country did you apply? Any tips or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

If a family applies for dtv from USA (Texas) using the Washington embassy, will we have to have a in person interview in Washington or will they do it via video? Or a closer embassy? (if there is one)

Hello,

I am a German citizen but I don't have a German residency or any other permanent address.

I am a perpetual traveller.

What can I do in this case to get the DTV as it requires the proof of a location/address?

I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone who has gone through a similar situation and managed to get the DTV approved without having an official residence.

Thanks a lot!

Hello 😊

I've got a question about the wording for the DTV Visa.

My company says "Workation" instead of remote work. So they will write "we will allow workation in Thailand" on my additional contract.

Does anybody know, if there will be a problem, if the company allows me workation, instead of remote?

Thank you in advance!

Hi, I just had a couple questions regarding the DTV application.

1. I have a employment contract/agreement with an employer in my home country, but the base salary is pretty low. I supplemet my income by working on outlier ai (data annotation platform), should I include both jobs for the employment section? and what documents will suffice to prove freelance work with outlier, dashboard screenshots?

2. My second question is, I receive my payroll directly in my savings bank in my home country and outlier through paypal. But for the financial requirement document, I’m planning to submit my Thai bank account, which has maintained >500k for 6 months. Will this be a problem?

Sharing this in case it helps others — be prepared that proof of professional activity (like a portfolio) may be requested.

Hello all! I am applying under soft activity Muai Thai at the London embassy and would love to hear what successful applicants have filled under the Accommodation in Thailand. I plan to book a hotel for a couple of weeks while I find a condo for the long term. If I fill the hotel and then mark additional accommodation I would have to put details but obviously I don't have them yet. Thanks in advance.

Can someone who has been through the process explain more about the soft visa activities?

Where would I find more information about them and the courses? Would it apply to children as well or can they be attached to the parent visa?
