DTV Visa Approved with London Embassy for a Landlord

I own 2 properties in the UK which I rent out, both owned in my personal name (not a limited company). When researching, I found there were some limited company landlords that had success with writing a letter signed on behalf of the limited company confirming ability to work remotely but obviously I could not do this. However, I use a letting agent to manage the properties and asked them to provide a letter explaining that I was able to carry out all of my duties as a landlord remotely (as I have done in the past). I also supplied a copy of the management contract between me and the letting agent, the tenancy agreements, 3 months rental statements from the letting agent and 3 months bank statements showing the rent coming in, along with all of the other standard application requirements.

This group has been a great help to me, thanks to everyone for sharing their experiences. I hope this helps someone else in a similar position!

Thank You for your helpful report šŸ‘

Congratulations šŸ‘šŸ‘šŸ‘

PRINT OUT THE EMAIL THAT HAS YOUR DTV VISA.

That's what you should do... print it out.

You may have to show PROOF of your DTV Visa to airline staff on check-in for your flight āœˆļø to Thailand...even to the connecting airline staff. Or to the land border crossing entry Thai Immigration Officer.

Upon arrival into Thailand, show the DTV visa to the Thai Immigration Officer and look at the STAMP placed in your passport to be sure you are STAMPED in for 180 days.
