We can do it without number 5 ?

No, if you are working there must be a statement in a letter or contract that you can work remotely in Thailand/overseas.

the letter from company but when we go there we don’t need to work with them , just asking for a letter, is that ok?

When you are remote worker you need to have letter you work for the company and you can do your job remote.

When you organize to get a letter and contract from a company where you do not work, that just is fraud.

@Kevin *****
You mean get a letter from a company you are not going to work for?

That is in breach of the rules and not worth the risk. Soft power option is easy if you have not got the work documentation.

Confirmation booking of 6 month stay in Thailand?

Malaysia requires that not Vietnam.

I wish I had done Hanoi 🥲. HCM asked for 6 months bank and customer contracts/invoices!

You own your business?

@Andi **********
yes…

It is much simpler if you are employed by a company. Very likely Hanoi would have asked you for similar to HCMC as a business owner.

@Andi **********
makes me a bit worried. I saw quite a few people applying based on their own company without current income since income isn’t a requirement… but this makes me worried

@Brian ********
when did you apply?
Brian *********
@Andi **********
2 days ago. Request for additional docs came 16 hours later
Andi ***********
@Brian ********
so that is a reset of the 5 days to approve. So early next you could get the approval
