I run a limited company and pay myself a salary of £1,000 per month, with an annual dividend top-up of around £20,000. My total income on my tax return comes to approximately £32,000 per year.

I recently moved 500,000 THB from the company account into my personal account. I usually invest my funds personally (e.g. in stocks), and I generally keep a personal balance of around £3,000–£4,000. This time, I deposited the 500,000 THB directly into my personal account.

Will my salary and dividend structure be sufficient for DTV Workcation Visa? What’s the lowest amount of income has someone been accepted with?

Answer summary

The poster inquired about the sufficiency of their salary and dividend structure for obtaining a DTV Workcation Visa in Thailand. They earn approximately £32,000 annually from salary and dividends and recently transferred 500,000 THB to their personal account. Community responses indicate that while there's no minimum income requirement, the visa process requires maintaining 500,000 THB in the account for a period (3 to 6 months) and having sufficient financial statements. Several commenters shared their own experiences and suggested that the poster's income and financial situation should meet the requirements for the visa application.

With dtv visa income don't matter only the 500k bath on your personal account/accounts on statements that is required, check up on how long time it's required the money is on your account on homepage for thai embassy UK , different requirements from country to country you reply from , some it is 3 months some it's 6 months, when I applied from Denmark it was the day I applied, Can have changed

Definitely should be fine but the general rule of thumb is they want to see minimum 3 months worth of statements and highly preferred 6 months with minimum 500k

There is no minimum income requirement. You meet the financial requirements.

From London that should be ok. They may ask for some additional docs but the financials should be fine. They are looking for 3 months of statements with a closing balance preferably a bit over the 500,000. I showed just over £14,000 and it was fine

Did the funds need to be in your personal account for 3+ months? Or were statements from your stocks account enough for this to prove you’ve had the money for long enough?

I’ll keep you updated once I hear back—it’s currently pending approval (so being signed off by big bosses). I transferred funds from the company to my personal account and applied the next day. I submitted my stock portfolio, company funds, and showed £500k in my personal account. They asked for more documents, so I sent over my self-assessment and tax calculations showing a £30k+ salary. That should be more than enough, especially since I know people with just £10k salaries getting approved.

@Ray ****

its understood assuming workation is digital nomad visa. 1. Employment contract 2. Letter explaining exactly what the nature if the work is 3. The bank statement. Besides passport, proof of address - anything else you backed your application with?
