Do I need to visit Thailand before applying for a DTV visa?
Answer summary
You do not need to visit Thailand before applying for a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV). Typically, the application can be submitted from outside Thailand at a Thai embassy or consulate. However, having the proper supporting documents, such as proof of remote work or financial status, is essential. While it is not a requirement to visit beforehand, many recommend doing so to ensure that the lifestyle in Thailand suits you.
