Second time applying for DTV 🤞

Rejected last year applying from Malaysia, no explanation

Now in Indonesia and got a request for documents, don’t want to get rejected again

- Employment contract or employment certificate in their country or professional portfolio showcasing digital nomad, remote worker, foreign talent or freelancer status : Please upload employment certificate showing digital nomad or remote worker status.

I’m freelancer with a main contract, I can make a letter from my business to myself and get one from client business. Any particular format or wording to include?

- Other request documents: Please upload bank statement of 3 months highlighting income from company/employer.

I submitted this in initial form: stripe invoices and bank statements from my business account, and bank statements showing sufficient funds in my personal account. Not sure why they ask again?

- Other request documents: Please upload Company Registration and ID COPY of the employer. The documents must be legalized by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and the Thai Embassy in the respective issuing country.

Idk if they want this for my LLC and/or main client but idk if I can get these legalized in time (sounds like it takes weeks in the USA, looking to go to Thailand in 3 weeks) I can provide my business formation documents and such with explanation if sufficient?

Overall worried I might be SOL again. Heard of some people able to downgrade to METV if DTV rejected? Don’t want to be out another $300 without explanation 😵‍💫

OP
Saw another post in this group of someone in similar situation with the legalized documents request and they said they submitted link to a government website showing the status of their business. I found my LLC in good standing directly through Wyoming gov website so will attempt that route 🤞

They want to see payments to you into your personal account for the last 3 months, not into your business account

May I know why you chose Indo as second place to apply? I'm guessing Jakarta?
