ORIGINAL POSTERTLDR : Answer Summary
No, you cannot be approved for a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) in Thailand without proof of employment. The DTV requires you to either be a remote employee of a foreign company or engage in approved Thai soft power activities. While steady income from disability may demonstrate financial stability, it does not meet the criteria for the DTV. Additionally, having 500,000 baht (or equivalent) in a bank account is also necessary. Alternatives like medical treatments or courses may qualify under soft power options but do not allow for direct employment.
