Hello, does anyone here have any experience with the consulate in Frankfurt in relation to the point of employment? I work for a telecommunication company, however I don’t have an explicit certificate for remote work. Does anyone have any experience with if the industry you work in is closing remote is sufficient for the visa? or in general has anyone submitted a request without a remote notice?

Hallo, hat hier jemand Erfahrungen mit dem Konsulat in Frankfurt in Bezug auf den Punkt mit dem Beschäftigungsverhältnis? Ich arbeite in einem Telekommunikationsunternehmen, habe allerdings keine explizite Bescheinigung für Remote-Work. Hat jemand Erfahrung damit, wenn die Branche in der man tätig ist, auf Remote schließen lässt ausreichend ist für das Visa? oder generell schonmal jemand eine Anfrage eingereicht ohne Remote Hinweis?
Answer summary
The post inquires about the requirements for a visa application when working remotely for a telecommunication company without a specific certificate. Community responses indicate that applicants must provide proof of employment for a non-Thai company and a letter permitting them to work remotely in Thailand. A general mention of remote work typically isn’t sufficient, and employers need to explicitly confirm that the individual can work in Thailand. Applications lacking proper documentation may be rejected.

Das wird leider nicht hinhauen. Der Arbeitgeber muss in einer Bescheinigung ausdrücklich bestätigen, dass der Antragsteller in Thailand arbeiten darf. Wenn in der Bescheinigung bzw. im Arbeitsvertrag nur Fernarbeit im Allgemeinen erwähnt wird, genügt es in der Regel nicht, aber man kann es evtl. versuchen. Ganz ohne wird der Antrag höchstwahrscheinlich abgelehnt.

You need to prove you are working online for a non Thai company and provide a letter giving permission to work remotely in Thailand. If you fail to submit this a request will be made for such documentation, failing to do so will see your application cancelled with no refund. Apply for Softpower if you have problems proving online work.
