FYI: arrived Da Nang Sunday Oct 20. Applied evisa that night to Thai embassy in HCMC.

Documents were pdfs:

1. a single statement with funds in Australian bank account of 500,000 baht equivalent.

2. Proof of location: passport stamp into Vietnam and receipt from accommodation in Vietnam.

3. My work contract with my Australian company showing I can work remotely.

Evisa received via email on Wed Oct 23 at 10pm.

Now back in Thailand with a 180 day stamp on my passport.

When you say "single statement", does that mean statement for the last 1 month of transaction?

I got a statement from my bank which was about 2 months to Oct 17. There was almost nothing in there at the beginning of that period, I transferred from other accounts and only had the total required for about a week before the statement date.

Did you include any other company related documents like company registration or pay slips?

What does your contract say that indicates you can work remotely? Is it a new contract?

that’s what I wanted to know and hoped for as I am going to apply with a different countries bank account than my passport origin. So it seems there is no issue.
