Hi Everyone,

I am looking to apply for a DTV1 workation visa, as a PhD student/academic with a regular income (stipend from the Economic Social & Research Council).

Does anyone have any experience with this type of application? There isn't really any other suitable visa that I can apply for?

Thanks for any input!

Do you have a work contract? Does it say you're allowed to do your paid research in Thailand? Without that you would be rejected if not applying trhu the soft power category
