TLDR : Answer Summary
The user successfully obtained a DTV (Digital Nomad Visa) for remote work in Bali, sharing that the application process was smooth and completed within 10 business days without requiring many complex documents. The comments include inquiries about the application process, such as whether the application was made via the Jakarta Embassy and if document notarization from the home country was needed. Advice is provided on the importance of printing out the DTV visa approval email and having it ready for airline check-in and immigration upon entering Thailand.

Did you need to notarize your documents from your home county?

Hey man, the agent manages everything, including documents. I’ve just relaxed and done nothing, so I don’t know how they managed everything. πŸ˜…

FYI: They requested the entire page of my passport pictures, including the blank pages, on the last day before approving my visa.

Thank You for your helpful report πŸ‘

Congratulations πŸ‘πŸ‘πŸ‘

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.
