“Hello everyone, I worked as a teacher in Thailand for a few years and have a Thai bank account with a balance, as well as ownership of a condo in Thailand. I resigned from my job on March 1st, 2025, and currently don’t have employment outside of Thailand. Am I eligible for the Digital Nomad Visa (DTV)?”
Summary so far
The user inquired about their eligibility for the Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) after resigning from their teaching job in Thailand. Responses indicate that resignation from a job may hinder DTV eligibility; however, some suggest pathways under the 'soft power' route, which involves engaging in approved activities like cultural classes or medical appointments. Overall, the consensus is that without a remote job or compliance with specific conditions, eligibility for DTV is questionable.
