Can I apply for a remote work visa in Thailand using my coding salary slips while transitioning to e-commerce?

Hey all, hope to get some advice.

I am a software engineer and run a ecommerce business on the side for a year now. Hence after saving enough money, I want to take a break from my coding job, and work on my ecommerce business fully while im in thailand. Ive launched my first product last year but due to lousy potential, I stopped it and currently not selling anything, but I’m working on my 2nd product.

I’m looking to apply the remote working route and am concerned about providing “6 months of salary slip”. Is it okay for me to provide my coding salary slip, although implying im going to be a remote worker for ecomm?

My business is small and not enough to pay myself a salary yet but revenue was about 50k last year..

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user is seeking advice on applying for a remote work visa in Thailand as they transition from a software engineering job to focusing full-time on an e-commerce business. They are concerned about providing salary slips for the visa application, as their business is currently not generating sufficient income. A commenter suggests that there are no strict income requirements and recommends using salary slips from their coding job while also providing a cover letter explaining the career transition.

There is no income requirements. Hopefully your 500K baht funding has been in place for a while to show financial stability. No reason why you can't create a brief cover letter stating your software engineering career is now pivoting to e-commerce remote/freelance work. Read previous posts of successful applicants to get an idea of how you want to present yourself and portfolio/business etc.
