What documents and process does a UK citizen need to apply for a workcation visa in Thailand?

DTV Granted HCMC (Ho Chi Minh City) 29/11/24

UK Citizen

Workcation Category

Not a freelancer; I work for an international company

Flew to DMK same day - no issues at immigration

Maybe a unique case - I was travelling Thailand, Laos, Malaysia and Vietnam in the 6 months prior to application. I got my job as I was leaving Thailand to go to Borneo

Applied 21/11, submitted:

- Passport photo

- 6 months of bank statements + brief cover letter

- I only had the ฿500,000 in my account a week prior to application (I have no idea who lets that amount of money sit in their account rather than somewhere useful).

- Flight itinerary, hotel booking and Vietnam visa stamp as proof of location

- Compnay contract and certificate of employment detailing that I can work globally

Request for extra documents 26/11:

- Photos of every single passport page (sent as pdf, included the front and back cover too)

- Clear photo of Vietnam visa (sent)

- 6 months of bank statements, again (sent)

- 6 months of salary slips (I sent a cover letter instead explaining that I didn’t have any yet as I was a new hire. My contract has the date stated the weird American way (MM/DD/YYYY) so I cleared that up). I attached my contract and certificate of employment again).

Granted afternoon of 29/11/24

Ask any questions. I used this page as a resource, I’m happy to help
