Does anyone have experience as a “digital nomad” working for themselves (private practice therapist) using the DTV? It looks like one of the requirements is working for a big company which I don’t.
Answer summary
The discussion centers on the feasibility of working as a self-employed therapist (digital nomad) in Thailand while holding a DTV visa. Key points include that it is not necessary to be employed by a large company, as self-employment is viable. Participants share their experiences of providing documentation like company registration, personal tax returns, and self-written letters to demonstrate their ability to work remotely. Overall, there are successful examples of obtaining the DTV visa through self-employment.

Give them what they want, a letter/contract saying you are required to work remotely. AI can draft a contract if you don't have one.
