Can I work remotely in Thailand on a tourist visa, or should I wait until I return to Poland for my DTV application?

Anonymous participant na jedno wychodzi. Tylko pamiętaj że do wizy musisz mieć napisane przez pracodawcę że zezwala żebyś pracował zdalnie z Tajlandii (najlepiej IMHO to od razu napisać na umowie)

Anonymous participant 956 opcja zgodna z tym co chcą jest taka że wracasz do Polski, zaczynasz działalność, pracujesz trochę i aplikujesz o wizę.

Opcja druga jest taka że masz to w nosie i albo się uda albo będą negatywne konsekwencje.

Sugeruję opcję pierwszą.

Anonymous participant FYI... I am one of the Moderators on Thai Visa Advice forum. This just now was shared by a person who was successful in getting the DTV visa.

And on this forum too:



I just got my DTV eVISA approved and sent to my email (PDF). Valid from /2025 to /2030!!!

Do I still need to go to the embassy where it got approved to get a sticker on my passport? Any advice on next steps is more than welcomed!!

Process:

1. Applied 29th apr 2025

2. Docs check 30th apr 2025

3. Additional proof requested 2nd may 2025

4. Pending approval 13th may 2025

5. Approved 17th may 2025

Less than 20 days.

Note the ADDED documents requested by the Thai Embassy in Spain in their consideration of the DTV visa application.

"Additional Doc Check List for DTV Approval Spanish Embassy...

Following a post where I shared that my DTV application got approved yesterday and in order to respond to all those who asked me what additional documents the embassy asked me for before approval, see the summary of requirements below:

Requested Documents:

1. Biodata page of your passport

2. Official bank statement issued directly by your bank (via official website or physical branch).

Must include: your full name as account holder, transaction history, and most updated balance.

Note Screenshots are not accepted.

3. Proof of current location in Spain. Examples include: electricity bill, municipal registration certificate (padrón), or rental agreement under your name.

4. Proof of last 3 self-employment payments (autónomo). Official receipts or confirmations of your last three freelance/self-employed tax or social security contributions.

5. Concise overview of your professional activities in Thailand. A short explanation of my business or professional engagements during my stay in Thailand.

Include how you will generate income while residing there.

6. Concrete evidence of your job. Documents that demonstrate and verify your professional status (portfolio, client list, contracts, content, etc.)."

Hopefully you can provide such details with your new startup company.

Anonymous participant go for it. It's your choice.
