ORIGINAL POSTER
DTV Success Story - Indonesia Embassy (EVisa website while in Bali)

*I was on an Thai education visa before

*I am an individual tax resident in my home country

*I sell software online

Documents submitted:

*A 6 month bank statement, the balance was above 500,000 baht for the last 30 days.

*A pdf showing my plane ticket,Visa on Arrival, and a 12 day booking at a hotel in Bali (I booked for 12 days so the booking would be current when they review the submission)

*I submitted a 12 page pdf detailing how I make money online, including: my software listing with hundreds of reviews, my website where people purchase, details of my paypal sales activity (annual report and 2 weeks of sales report), statement of my bank account where I recieve the money, and my tax return in my home country. I also included a statement that I am an individual tax resident, my customers are overseas, and I am able to work online in Thaialnd and contunie my commitment to overseas customers.

*I submitted my application on Monday, and it was approved on Friday (no extra documents were requested)

*Before I left Thailand, I went to my school and got them to cancel my Education visa 4 days before I left. Technically you are supposed to cancel, the visa is not offically closed if you don't cancel. It is possible when you return to Thailand (after getting the DTV), you may need to pay a fine for not closing it, so I closed this properly before applying.

Andi Traveller Thank you very much for your advice!
