How can a 19-year-old successfully apply for a DTV visa in Thailand?

I’m 19, I got my DTV approved at the Royal Thai Embassy in Yangon, Myanmar, despite everyone saying it wasn’t possible due to me not being 20.

I’m a high earner, a part time freelancer and also work a 9-5 corporate job. I think it might have resulted in my visa approval.

I applied in person at embassy, where I had a casual interview with the Consul General. She asked about my work and travel history, but mostly, she seemed genuinely interested in my previous travels in Thailand.

The next day, I collected my approved visa and passport.

The documents I submitted included:

- Resume

- Company Certificate

- Company Extract

- Company Tax Payer Identification

- Employment Contract (Approved and Stamped by the Ministry of Labor)

- Statment by the Board of Directors supporting remote work applications.

- Formal request letter from my company to the Royal Thai Embassy

- Balance Certificate Issued by Bank

- 6 months of bank statement

It’s not a hefty process, if you align with their criteria I’m sure they won’t make it difficult for you.

Good luck with your DTV applications everyone. Everything is possible!
