ORIGINAL POSTER

I submitted all my documents and application on sunday 05 jan, got a message today requesting extra documents. I was expecting the passport pages request but it said it wanted additional details of my current role, including cv, portfolio, work examples.

I applied as a remote worker, working for an employer in my home country so i don't have a portfolio, can't really show work examples due tonconfidentiality clause and i don't have an up-to-date cv. 

I initially provided my contract, a letter from my boss approving me to work remotely and an extract from chamber of commerce for the company I am employed at.

I don't really know what else I can provide them, and am slightly worried now.

TLDR : Answer Summary

After submitting a remote work visa application to the Thai embassy, the applicant received a request for additional documents, specifically concerning their current role, including a CV and work examples. Due to confidentiality clauses and not having up-to-date documentation, the applicant is unsure how to proceed. Responses from the community suggest providing a detailed letter explaining the situation, updating or creating a CV, and seeking support from the employer for documentation about remote work arrangements.

You provide what they ask, or face a possible rejection.

It takes minimum effort to update your CV - you’re not applying for a job so it doesn’t matter how much effort you put into it. I just added a couple things and uploaded it. I don’t think they even read it as I later realized I had the wrong zip code on it from a previous residence and they didn’t care at all

Ask your HR for a letter stating the confidentiality clause etc and that you are allowed to work remotely in Thailand.

They have asked for added documents...

Do your best to provide them...

Using a black marker to line out/ over sensitive identifier items... yet providing the Thai Embassy examples of your work.

Otherwise, sadly, your DTV application is likely to be DENIED.

Note that the clock resets when you submit ADDED documents requested.

Which means you might be unable to get the answer to your application before your entry visa expires.

As a passport holder from the Netherlands,

You would have had a Tourist Visa to enter Vietnam and received a 90 day stamp on arrival.

Write a letter describing your role, what type of work that you do and that it doesn't include things that you present in a portfolio. Explain why you can't share any work examples. About the CV, it can't really be THAT difficult to write a new one or update one that you have (I know I could write mine in less than an hour). They ask for it, so do your best to sum up your education and work history. Good luck!
