Hey everyone!

I’m currently on a work visa in Bangkok, but I’ve just landed a full-remote independent contractor role with a US company and I’m planning to switch over.

My plan is to apply for a DTV visa from my home country. I already have over 500K THB in my KBank account, and I’ll be showing my contract (which lists my Thailand address with the US company).

Does anyone know if I need to provide any additional documents when applying, or have any suggestions from similar experience?

Answer summary

The user is transitioning from a work visa to applying for a DTV visa while working remotely for a US company. They have questions about required documentation beyond showing their bank balance and contract. Comments suggest checking successful application reports, providing requested documents, clarifying the company's US base, and mentioning the need for possible tax ID information.

Just provide exactly what is requested on the website and wait for additional info requests. Mostly likely tax id.
