Hello, I've decided to apply from Bangladesh. If somebody can help me to clarify. I actually own a IT company in Bangladesh , my average turnover per year more than $3m , my personal account has transaction more than $10K/ Month, in & out from different local & freelancing consulting project as well as from my own company constantly since years , my average last balance in my account more than $50K , now I've decided to carry on remote work to run my IT company and my remote work ...

I'm little bit confused , which profession I should possese to get approved my DTV visa ?? Again, I'm owner of a IT company, I do personal freelancing job + remote worker ( multiple transaction) happen in a month.
Answer summary
A user from Bangladesh is seeking clarification on which profession to claim for a DTV visa, given their status as the owner of an IT company and their activities as a freelancer and remote worker. Community members suggest focusing on the workcation or remote worker classification, emphasizing the need to provide the required documentation. They mention that while the transaction amounts are impressive, maintaining a balance of $15,000 at the end of each month is crucial for meeting visa criteria.

You should choose workcation/remote worker and supply the items/documents that they require for that visa application. There are many people who own their own business who have applied and received the DTV.

Glenn Srebmahac thank you dear, unfortunately, here in Bangladesh they don't allow entrpreneur (IT) to apply for DTV. Only remote worker/freelancing in reputable marketplace with significant transaction from other 3rd country except Thailand & Bangladesh.

Anonymous participant - the DTV isn’t contingent on a profession. They want to see that you have the right/ability to work remotely.
