As a trader what document are you submitting to prove digital nomad or freelance.... I am trying as a full time forex trader I don't know if we can submit our trading account statement as proof...

TLDR : Answer Summary
The post discusses the challenges faced by a forex trader trying to obtain a Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) in Thailand, specifically in terms of the documentation required to prove their freelance status. The user is uncertain if a trading account statement is sufficient evidence. Comments from others suggest inquiries about formal registration as a freelancer and provide additional resources like taxframe.com.

thank God u asked again, i could not find this tread.

Got reply saying as of now it is not accepted ,may be in future if there is any change in DTV rule/Req , and I was suggested I can go for non-o visa if i am over 50. ...

Anyway I am flying to TH in December will personally vist the immigration centre and try to find out first hand. Hope things change by then. 😉☺️

do you know about prop firm trading? This comes under freelancing not trading because we provide analysis

may be UK/USA it's possible, not from where i come from or where I am hoping they understand.

I am not a visa consultant so no idea about prop firm trading....

I do not think that qualifies.
