What financial documents do freelancers need to submit for a Thai visa application?

Nov 11, 2024
a month ago
Hey everyone! Just sharing for freelancers who are unsure of what to submit for the financial supporting documents. Besides the normal requirements along with my portfolio (PDF with tearsheets/photos), I submitted:

1. A few bank statements showing over the 500k (or more! As much as you can, I guess) sitting in the account for more than 3 months -- I highlighted the amount and the months to prove that.

2. Invoices to clients with screenshots of the bank showing the money being paid.

Applied online from Cambodia on Oct 28th, received approval this morning (Nov 11).

Took a while, but it all went through.

Good luck and thanks for the support!

They provided bank statements showing over 500,000 baht for more than three months and invoices with payment proofs. The application was made online from Cambodia on October 28 and was approved on November 11. Other community members asked about tax proof and the amount shown on the visa.

Again it’s Embassy dependant, so check the Embassy you will be applying at.

You didn't share any portfolio? Or many contracts with clients?

So, you got the visa showing 300K instead of 500K?

Anonymous participant I thought it was 500K for everyone. Never seen anything to suggest 300K would be enough.

I guess maybe if you show that you have enough $$ sitting in an account, they don't ask for more? Good luck!
