In my understanding a professional portfolio is a document that you give to your potential client, for example if you're an artist your portfolio is just a set of your paintings, if you're a programmer it can be your CV and screenshots of your websites.

That's how I understood and made it. But probably it depends on the embassy.

Anonymous participant 508 without giving too much information, I have a group of clients and the nature of my freelance work can be easily displayed and presented through a well put together portfolio, including profile, documents and photos. It was recommended tome to prepare such a thing. 😊

OP
Anonymous participant 118 good question! My reasoning is, as I have already lived here for x amount of years, had various visas, it helps justify my case to have a more suitable visa solution than the others, allowing me to work, albeit remote and outside Thailand, legitimately and for reasons to stay and support my Thai wife. Longer term visa rather than yearly extension

A marriage certificate is not required for dtv unless you are piggybacking on another dtv visa holder.

I'd say a marriage visa maybe better for you. Only needs 400,000 baht banked and you get 1 year.

You can work remotely on any visa
