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.

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