TLDR : Answer Summary

To apply for a DTV visa from the UK while employed remotely, you need to prepare the following documents: 1) A valid passport, 2) Bank statements showing sufficient income (recommended minimum of 500,000 baht), 3) A letter from your employer confirming your remote work eligibility, highlighting your salary and employment start date, 4) Proof of your current residency in the UK, 5) A recent photograph, and optionally 6) A cover letter detailing your intentions for relocating to Thailand and adherence to local work regulations.

Bank statement of 500k bath, employment paperwork, payslips showing income outside of 500k, paper from employer saying you can work remote from thailand.

Also helps if you write a coverletter explaining why you want to come to thailand, that you understand the rules about not getting thai work etc

Just done mine and got approved Saturday

1) passport.

2) bank statements I highlighted the income

3) a letter from company stating you can work anywhere including Thailand and your company does not work with Thai people or the country. Also highlight your salary in this and date you started.

I'd also include your employment contract too as I got requested as additional evidence

4) proof your currently in UK and thaat you will stay there until the decision is made

5) photo of you
