Digital Nomad Visa Visa Application Process Company Registration Thai Embassy Requirements Document Certification Expat Advice

ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi everyone,

I applied as a digital nomad at the embassy in Vienna. I make iphone apps, and I have a US-based company. The latest document request is "The company registration documents were not issued by the Austrian government. Therefore, you will need to have these documents certified by the Royal Thai Embassy in Washington, D.C. This certification is required to verify the existence of your company."

Now this would take months to get (shipping documents from Austria to legalize the certificate of company formation at a state level, federal level, then by the embassy in Washington). Does anybody have experience with this?

I’ve seen similar cases when company documents are issued in a different country from the application post. Some embassies do require legalization by the Royal Thai Embassy in the country of registration, which can take significant time.

From my experience, applications supported by verifiable employment documents such as an employer letter, contract, and payslips, tend to be reviewed more smoothly than those relying solely on foreign company registration documents.

It may be helpful to ask the embassy whether alternative documentation would be acceptable before proceeding with a long legalization process.

I applied in Singapore and the Thai embassy of Singapore asked me for my Indonesian company documents which are not publicly accessible and cannot be verified by them, instead I provided official Singapore company documents. Suggest you think of creative ways to provide what they are asking. Good luck 🤞
