Hi all,

when applying for DTV under workation category how long do you need to hold a remote work to be granted visa? Am I good to go if I started this job in the previous month? Can you share your experiences?

TLDR : Answer Summary
When applying for a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) under the workation category in Thailand, there are varying requirements depending on the embassy. Some embassies may accept applicants who have just started a new remote job, as long as applicants provide documentation, such as a job offer letter detailing the role, salary, and start date. It's also advisable to include a CV to demonstrate relevant experience. However, some locations may not accept very new positions, and using short-term contracts is generally discouraged.

Though you're starting a new job, you must have experience already in that field? You can just include your CV.

In Australia DTV can be granted for a brand new job. You just need to attach the job offer letter stating the role is fully remote with salary and start date etc.
