Can I apply for a DTV visa in Kuala Lumpur while on an ED visa with a re-entry permit?

@Timothy ****

same so I plan applying the soft power. If not KL, Lao or Cambodia seems to be good options.

@Pitch *****

It seems they've expanded/adjusted their list of requirements. 42b

So it reads now like you need ALL of the following (not or):

A contract OR employment certification - both certified by the embassy?

A copy of the business registration - also certified by the embassy?

A portfolio

My contracts would be from US companies, and I don't think I can get anything certified at a US embassy as a non-US citizen easily or quickly. I've emailed them back for clarification, but this might mean KL is off the list of places I can apply from.

That's one of my specific questions they didn't directly answer, but it seemed affirmative, I stated that I was not Malaysian and would only be visiting KL with the purpose of applying for the DTV. I probably won't be able to get there until September, so likewise, keep us posted!



They responded to me here within 24 hours. These are the questions that were answered, in case that helps anyone:

5. Proof of prolonged residence in Thailand:

If you were sponsored an accommodation by Thai citizens, please attach the invitation letter along with a copy of the person's Thai ID card and house registration.

6. A copy of a recent savings or checking bank statement with an ending balance of no less than:

A foreign bank account is acceptable as long as the ending balance is at least 500,000 THB.

7. An employment contract or employment certificate in Malaysia or a professional portfolio showcasing digital nomad, remote worker, foreign talent or freelancer status:

You can provide the contract for remote working to apply for a DTV visa. Please attach it along with the monthly income for the last 6 months.

The DTV is not specified, no Visas are, just saying they are going to the eVisa system
