ORIGINAL POSTER

Hey all 

Couple of quick questions 

1. I’m going to be applying for the workcation DTV, I have my own coaching company, so am I okay to show the 500k in my business bank account or does it have to be in my personal account?

2. Can I apply online and submit all documents whilst I’m in Thailand and then once it gets accepted fly to Hanoi to complete?

Thanks in advance 

John

Additionally, they ask if they can apply online while in Thailand and then travel to Hanoi to finalize the visa process. Comments indicate that the 500k must be in a personal account and that the application must be completed from outside Thailand.

It is you who are travelling, not your compagny, so of course it has to be in your personal account

You have to be in the country where the Embassy you apply at is situated, and you have to stay there during the whole visa process.

You can only apply online, and it can not be done inside Thailand.

Do you self a favor, and read /search the group before asking allready asked questions.

Reading the Thai Embassy website is also a must do.

Which Thai Embassy or Consulate will you be applying for the DTV visa?

What is your passport nation?

And its best to have a letter (even from yourself) giving yourself permission to work remotely from Thailand, and confirming that all your clients are outside of Thailand

500k must be in a personal account. You must apply from outside of Thailand and provide evidence of your location.
