Hi, does anyone know what is usually requested for a workcation DTV visa? I am planning to apply for a DTV visa but got told that I need to have like 6 months of payslips and bank transaction records from my remote job for a good chance to DTV visa. 

And I have been collecting the 500,000 THB in a thai bank account and was told that it is better to have them in a foreign bank account if possible.

I have just recently gotten the remote job and do not really have the payslips or income yet, so do I have to wait for 6 months before I apply for a DTV?

FYI, the employeer can produce all documents including letters that say I am allowed to work remotely.

Answer summary

The DTV visa application typically requires documentation such as payslips and bank transaction records for at least 6 months, but some applicants have reported success with less. It's recommended to have 500,000 THB in a foreign bank account rather than a Thai one. If you're newly employed and lack payslips, consider gathering other documentation, such as a letter from your employer confirming your remote work status, which might help support your application.
