TLDR : Answer Summary

The DTV (Digital Nomad Visa) is specifically for individuals doing remote work for a company outside Thailand without conducting business within the country. While having a regular employment with varying rotations may accommodate your lifestyle, you must provide an employment contract that clearly states you work remotely. It is also advised to consult with the Thai Embassy for precise application requirements.

You must provide employment contract / letter categorically stating you are a remote worker as part of the DTV requirement.

Otherwise go through the soft power route.

You need to check with the Thai Embassy you will be using to apply with.

DTV is not about rotations such as offshore work. Its about doing remote work while being in Thailand for a company outside Thailand and doing no business in Thailand. There are also soft control options such as long term medical treatment etc.

I understand. My problem is that I no longer have the option "Non O 1 year multiple" And to my understanding reading other posts it will be a matter or entries into Thailand before they start asking why I don't hold a visa

I know a guy who also is working abroad (offshore). He is younger then 50 and he got himself a elite visa. But that was when it was much cheaper.

If you would normally could get a Non O multiple then you can still get a Non O 90 days single entry in Thailand and get a yearly extension and add a multiple reentry permit for 3800B.

Is a fixed salary required on the employment letter for a DTV application as a remote worker in Thailand?
