What documents do I need to apply for a visa from the Dubai Embassy as an Australian investor in Thailand?

Hi guys,

Could someone please point me in the right direction. I’m applying from Dubai Embassy - I am an Australian passport holder and have been living in Dubai for the last 2 years. I have my own company set up from which I transfer (from the business account) to my personal account money each month. My emirates id is marked as “investor”.

Questions in terms of documents to upload:

1. Personal bank statement showing equivalent of 500,000 THB in my account.

2. My business license

3. NOC from my company addressed to me.

4. Employment contract between my company and me.

Anything else I’m missing?

Thanks so much!!

I was thinking to apply aswell from the UAE but I heard how strict it is.

Decided to go in on a tourist visa and then take a trip to Hanoi instead to do my DTV

I hope you manage to do it from Dubai!

Hi mate. Am applying from the UAE as well but I went through an agency called Issa Compass. Check them out. Am going soft power route - Muay Thai.

Schedule a free call with them. I heard UAE is notoriously strict so better have your ducks in a row or you'll have to apply from another country.

Also remember that once your application has been submitted you can't under no circumstances leave the country. UAE takes between 3 - 6 weeks to process.

Good luck 👍🏽
