ORIGINAL POSTERI am applying for DTV remote workcation in Ho Chi Minh on March 7.
I meet the financial requirements, I have a remote job but I haven't begun yet so I cannot prove income and Ive been traveling for 4 months so there is no other income to provide. I can provide all information about the job, business, salary etc. and my boss is willing to produce any necessary documents. The website doesn't mention needing to submit proof of income but it seems many people are asked to. If I clearly explain start date, salary, position, business etc. is that enough?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The applicant is unsure if they need to provide proof of income for the DTV remote workcation visa due to having a new remote job that hasn't started yet. Although the website does not specify the need for income proof, commenters suggest that the authorities in Ho Chi Minh City typically require income proof from the last six months of employment related to the remote job.

In HCMC they will request you to provide proof of income from the last 6 months from the remote job you use to apply DTV. No Exeptions

you should contact HCMC in advance and ask if they will accept your contract. Taipei would not accept my new contract as i had not been paid from it.

Can I use payslips from my main job for a remote work DTV visa if my side hustle isn't making money?
