My employment verification letter doesn't mention that I am able to work internationally remote, only that I'm able to work remotely. Does this matter for DTV application?

TLDR : Answer Summary
The necessity of specifying international remote work in your employment verification letter for a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) application is crucial, as it is a primary requirement for the visa. While some commenters believe it should generally be acceptable if the letter states you can work remotely, others argue that clarification regarding international work is essential. It’s advisable to confirm with immigration authorities or seek assistance from someone experienced in the field to ensure compliance with visa requirements.

what she says has no value really... different rules in every embassy... and add to that, evisa system has very little to do with immigration officers, its handled by ministry of foreign affairs. This group can provide more info than an immigration officer at location X

I don't think it matters, it is important that it specified you can work remote, not specifical on which locations.

Yes, it doesn't necessarily need to specifically mention Thailand, but the OP said his xofndzxg has no mention of remote work whatsoever.

then he must have changed it, I clearly read "doesn't mention that I am able to work internationally remote, only that I'm able to work remotely"
