What is the process for applying for a DTV visa in Thailand as a freelancer with a UK passport?

DTV Vias Approved. UK Passport. Foreign Company.

Yesterday I received my DTV as a freelancer and thought I would share the procedure as best as I remember and documents I provided.

Applied on line:

Passport page scan.

Sacn of UK driving licence - Proof of being in UK.

My linkedIn profile in PDF form - from the website.

Address in Thailand - I have a condo so used this.

Screenshot of Thai Bank statement with over 500k - I went back 3 months.

Paid £300 that's 13500 Baht, not the 10000 quoted.

A day later I was asked for further documents:

* Other request documents: Self assessment tax return / Statement of accounts / Accountant's letter / Personal tax calculation or computation statement from HM Revenue and Customs (HMRC)

Here I sent them my companies latest receipt of filing my company accounts and Business registration.

* Other request documents: Flight details showing the applicant’s name, departure date, all flights en route from UK/Ireland/UK territories to Thailand (E-Ticket)

I had a flight from Germany (Current work place) to Thailand so I sent them the itinerary.

A few days later I got a email again requesting documents:

* Other request documents: - Please upload your Flight booking showing your name as passenger , departure date, all flights en route from UK/Ireland/UK territories to Thailand

Additional return flight itinerary from UK to Germany either side of my Thai flights was sent.

* Other request documents: - Your Accountant's letter to confirm that you have earn your income from outside Thailand.

Got my accountant to provide a letter confirming that my income is made outside of Thailand.

* Other request documents: - Your Professional portfolio (please explain if you could not provide any required documents.)

I had already sent them my linked in profile in PDF, this time I screenshotted my LinkedIn Profile, showing my experience and different locations and sent them my CV.

A few days later I had my visa.

One piece of advice when you supply documents, I could only upload one document so for my work portfolio I merged my LinkedIn Profile screenshots and CV together using some free software on the internet, just google free merge PDF and a whole bunch of sites come up.

Good luck
