Has anyone here applied for a Thailand DTV visa as a freelancer whose income is mainly in crypto?

I don’t use traditional banks much, and most of my earnings and savings are in cryptocurrency. I’m wondering if there are any agencies that can help with DTV applications in this situation, or if there are alternative ways to prove the 500,000 THB financial requirement.

Would love to hear from anyone with personal experience or recommendations. Thanks!

Answer summary

The inquiry discusses the challenges of applying for a Thailand Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) as a freelancer whose income is primarily in cryptocurrency. Users suggest that since crypto funds aren't accepted, it's necessary to convert earnings to cash and deposit them in a traditional bank account for at least three months to meet the financial requirement of 500,000 THB. Recommendations emphasize the need for proper documentation of freelance work and financial stability through standard banking.

If you go for freelancer, i suppose they will want your contract and your freelance setup and tax information. I showed that in my case. About the money, for sure should be in a "standard" bank account

It’s a good way to waste your crypto.

DTV requires a normal banks d plenty of seasoned money.

And a verifiable job.

That’s it.

Let us know how it works out for you.

You can probably use crypto to show regular income, but you definitely must use cash to show the funding requirements

Save yourself from wasting time looking for ways to circumvent the requirements. just convert some of it into cash and put it in a traditional account. If it makes you feel better, put it in an online HYSA.
