What are the key considerations for UK DTV visa holders using Workcation as their activity in Thailand?

ORIGINAL POSTER

Questions for UK based DTV visa holders using Workcation as their activity:

- Did the whole process happen through E Visa system?  No need to go to embassy?

- What was your chosen document to indicate current location?  A recent utility bill?  

- Did you have to show financial evidence of 500k Baht for both you (the applicant) and also for spouse?  

-  My current contract with client is for a company outside of the UK (but not in Thailand).  The E Visa website says Employment contract “in their country” do you think they want the contract to be with a UK company or is this just lost in translation?  I categorically know that it has to be work outside of Thailand.  

Your answers are much appreciated 🙏

@James *******

and with respect, I didn’t get the answer I was seeking on the post about whether UK application process requires both the applicant and spouse to show evidence of 500k. Hence this post being directed to anyone who has already been through the UK process.

And there are other questions on this post that I haven’t asked to date.

you get your DTV visa approved first...

Then your legally married spouse applies for her DVT visa based on section 5C of the graphic shown as your spouse.

I apologise James got a lot of things running through my mind which explains why I might have been asking a question here and there twice 🤣
