If i where to go the workation route.

What papers are exactly needed?

Applying in Oslo.

- 500k in account

- Employment contract.

- Portfolio or is resume fine?

- Paper from company that i will work remote in thailand and not with any thai customers?

The work am doing is provision based salary.

And i just started 01.08.2025.

Will this be a problem if i can prove other source of income like pension?

Pension is about 70000 bath pr month.

I will write a cover letter explaining my work, and my pension.

Is there anything else i need to think about?
Answer summary
To apply for a workation visa in Thailand while based in Oslo, you will need to prepare several documents including a substantial bank balance (500,000 THB), an employment contract, and verification of remote work with a letter from your employer. A portfolio may be beneficial, but a resume could suffice. Since your work is commission-based and you only started recently, demonstrating other sources of income, like pension payments of 70,000 THB per month, may not be considered sufficient. It is advised to check with the relevant authorities before applying and ensure to include proof of income that meets standards for your profession.

They won’t consider your pension. It’s not an income from work.

Prepare to show them the payslips and your income should not be lower than what people in your profession earn.

They basically have an email that you could send and ask before applying. Why don’t you do that?

Anonymous participant 426 that's not true. They will consider it, depending on the letter he writes.
