Can a consultant working for an international organization apply for a DTV visa in Thailand without a business registration?

Hi all. I am posting here anonymously as I would like to keep this post private from potential colleagues I might have in this group. I wanted to ask this group if I am a consultant working for an international organization based outside Thailand, can I still apply for DTV or do I absolutely need a business registration?

I would appreciate any guidance on this.

Thank you very much.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user inquires about the possibility of applying for a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) while working as a consultant for an international organization outside of Thailand, without having a business registration. Responses from the community indicate that it is indeed possible to apply for the DTV visa under these circumstances, provided the individual has an employment certificate and a letter from their company confirming their ability to work remotely in Thailand.

UK here. My remote work contract wasn't enough. Had to provide a letter from the company addressed to the Thai embassy explicitly stating I could work remotely in Thailand. Went through in 3 days after that

If your contract says you can work remotely then that's good enough, mine stated that explicitly and I wasn't requested any further proof.
