Could use some advice. I applied to us LA embassy as a freelancer, so I do not have a registered business. I attached a pdf with a cover letter to indicate I am a freelancer. But received the following back:

* Other request documents: Please upload a business registration of the company

* Other request documents: Please describe a business portfolio of the company

* Other request documents: Your recent tax return

* Other request documents: Employment contract or employment certificate from company

* Other request documents: Guarantee letter from the company implies that you work remotely

Majority of my work is with another company that is registered and I have a freelance contract with them. I could also have them easily write me a letter indicating I can work remotely. Would that be the best option moving forward? I am mostly confused about the document "Please describe a business portfolio of the company" as I thought the PDF below would suffice.

Hello Everyone,

I am currently in Malaysia on Digital Nomad visa and I am planning to apply for DTV.

I originally saw this requirement

I certainly meet that. No issues.

I was about to apply from Kuala Lumpur but I just saw someone posting this in the group

[members only]

And now I am not sure what to do.

I work for a US company (I am from Pakistan), I don't think they will hand me over their Business Registration Doc and I will be able to "Stamp" it from US embassy.

Also how (and why) they expect someone to get a long term stay in Thailand without actually getting the visa ?

I am sure everyone want's to see the place, know the area before getting a place for long term. Will they accept a 6 month AirBNB booking ? Or you need to get a lease ?

Should I apply from KL?

I am also thinking to visit Bali for 2/3 weeks and wondering if I can apply from there. (But I will be on Tourist visa there).

Any help here ?

Hi guys,

Is there any DTV success stories from Pakistan?

Hello. Applying from Lisbon. Can they invalidate an application for delay in the delivery of additional requested documents? My company is taking a few days to deliver a document they asked for 😔

Thanks

hi all, quick question here! I applied for the dtv on July 2 in Manila, Philippines. I know my docs and $ are all good (been in my account for over 3 months).

Today makes the 7th budiness day and I still haven’t heard anything at all. Still shows as “pending document check.” Can anyone who applied in Manila tell me how long this stage took for them/if them taking this long to just check my docs is normal?

Many thanks in advance! Good luck everyone with the DTV process 💪🏼

Hello all! Im applying for the DTV at the London Embassy. Just wondering if I book a flight a couple of months in advance can I still go ahead and apply for the visa now or should I wait nearer the time? Thank you!

Hello everybody, I will need to extend my stay with the DTV for another 6 months at the end of this month. I understand I can either go to the immigration office and pay the fee, or I can also exit the country and come back again

Any suggestions on which of these two options is recommended?

Has anyone in Jakarta applied for the DTV visa using a Wise or Revolut account? How did it go, and what was your experience like?

Landed safely, passed through immigration, and no questions were asked. Location (Airport): DMK, Visa: DTV. :)

As titled. The officer first asked what did i do here and I mentioned being a digital nomad under DTV Visa. She asked for proof of work which I showed her my latest invoices with my clients. She was only happy when the invoices show the billing in the previous months so I reckon a contract would have worked better.

I then asked her if it was a new regulation to provide the documents before entry, she said no and mentioned it’d be better for me to have them since DTV is a long term visa.
