What documents do I need to apply for a remote work visa in Thailand, and how smooth is the application process?
Got my visa approved this week at Taipei, it was pretty smooth for me. I applied as a remote worker and I provided 6 months bank statements, employment contract, remote work agreement and a letter from the company. Tbh it seemed they were mainly interested in the bank statements.
I was a bit worried as I have only just started the job and haven't received a paycheck yet, but it all went fine.
There were a few others applying who seemed to get quite a grilling, but I think it may have been because they had more complex situations that the staff couldn't quite understand, but I believe everyone got approved in the end.
If you've got any questions, ask away. And thank you to this group, you've all been very helpful!

Hello friend, I have a question regarding bank statement - does it have to include bank stamp and signature? Because my bank only provide me with movements of funds within the month.

thanks!Dominic ******
Thank you for the insights. I would love to add some questions as I'm currently in Kaoshiung and planning to take a train to Taipei for a couple days later this month to also get a DTV. 🙂
Are you self-employed? If so, did you just write a simple work contract?
I'm running an LLC in Dubai and am wondering if the company formation and MOA (shoring that I'm the owner and only shareholder) is enough. Writing a contract for myself seems kinda silly. 😃
Do you know if they only care about the current bank balance? I haven't kept 500k THB in my account and would only transfer that from my company over this week so that I can show it. But it would be only recent, not for multiple months.
Thanks again! 🙂

OPI'm not self employed. I'm not 100% sure about the bank statements, as I had 500k for over 6 months, but I heard from others that it's only the current balance they care about.
