4 days between payment and approval ⏳Process was smooth and easy. Interview was 5mn with simple questions. While applying for the visa I made a PDF document showing that we were digital nomad since 2021, traveling full time and working for 2 companies remotely. We are content creators on social media and authors for Lonely Planet. Showing the last 3 months of our bank account. Everything as they asked 👍 Easy, now it’s time for Thailand 🥳✌️ See you there ✨Thanks for the valuable information shared on this group 🤝

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.
