TLDR : Answer Summary
A user shared their successful application for a Workcation visa from Hanoi, Vietnam, receiving approval within a week. They are a Korean national and encouraged questions about the application process. Commenters inquired about translating bank statements, costs, required documents, and bank balance requirements, specifically whether a 500,000 THB balance was needed for three months or just the last month. Another commenter provided tips on printed proof of the DTV visa being necessary for travel.

Thank You for your helpful report 👍

Congratulations 👏👏👏

PRINT OUT THE EMAIL THAT HAS YOUR DTV VISA.

That's what you should do... print it out.

You may have to show PROOF of your DTV Visa to airline staff on check-in for your flight ✈️ to Thailand...even to the connecting airline staff. Or to the land border crossing entry Thai Immigration Officer.

Upon arrival into Thailand, show the DTV visa to the Thai Immigration Officer and look at the STAMP placed in your passport to be sure you are STAMPED in for 180 days.

I use an internet bank in Korea. I applied for an English balance certificate on the app. I combined the English transaction history statement and the English balance certificate.

Malaysia is the most difficult embassy to get approved. Vietnam much easier. Are you in Pakistan now? quicker, cheaper to do there if you are.

you can, you show how you work online for the company. You do not need to pay an agent, a lot of posts in this forum to help you apply yourself.
