APPROVED - Los Angeles, 5 hours. I didn’t believe it could happen, but it happened last week. I read dozens reports of 30+ days, and saw one or two of <48 hours. My goal was to try to get this right on the first run.

This group helped me a lot so I wanted to add more info. Context - im an entrepreneur with business partners so it was a little bit more complex, but spent a good 5 hours getting everything properly in order. Here’s what I provided for the Workation DTV:

* Passport biodata

* Drivers license

* 3 months of bank statements with 6 figures of funds, with name and address matching license

* Cover letter on company letterhead explaining who I am, my company, explaining that I can work remotely, and confirming that I will not to any work in Thailand for outside companies or within the Thai labor market

* company registration documents (articles of organization)

* documents proving my ownership in this business

* one page visual portfolio of my company

* my LinkedIn profile one pager image

Yes. It was just north of $100k USD, not an insane amount. I'm not moving money OUT of my account to get closer to 500k baht

Thank You for your helpful report 👍

Congratulations 👏👏👏

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 ✈️ 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.
