What are the options for obtaining a DTV visa in Thailand if I don't have a remote work contract?
Hi everyone, I'd like to ask for some advice. I'd like to get a DTV. I've had the money in my account for over two years, with monthly payments. I don't have a remote work contract. What do you recommend? Thanks.
Answer summary
The discussion revolves around obtaining a DTV (Digital Nomad Visa) in Thailand, particularly by individuals without a remote work contract. Participants suggest various options, including enrolling in Thai cultural or cooking courses, or engaging in Muay Thai training. They emphasize the need for a legitimate source of funds to support a stay in Thailand, specifically mentioning the requirement of having 500,000 baht. Some share their experiences with agencies that helped them secure visas, noting associated fees and necessary documentation.

Medical treatment if you are under any regular treatment. Even if just to treat chronic stuff/get meds.
Otherwise cooking classes. But be sure to book more than 6 months of whatever soft power activity you go for

You obviously work so get a DTV based on Workation. You say you don't have a work contract so what is your status, self employed, freelancer, or?

unemployed. And up until now I've had unemployment paid by the state.John **********
GiftedKangaroo4899 I don't see any way you can get a DTV. Even using soft power they want to see how you can support yourself for your stay in Thailand over and above the 500k baht requirement. Your unemployment benefit won't count as you won't receive it if you are in Thailand for another other than a short holiday
