I have a question about the soft dtv visa. Are you legally allowed to work online as well? Obviously you're not allowed to work for Thai clients; are you allowed to freelance online for non Thai residents whilst staying in Thailand with a DTV soft power visa?

Answer summary

Yes, holders of the Soft DTV visa are legally allowed to work online, including freelancing for non-Thai residents, while staying in Thailand. This has been confirmed by multiple users who have successfully utilized the visa for online work.
