What should I include in my explanation of working remotely in Thailand for my visa application?
Hi everyone,
On December 13th, I submitted my documents to the Thai Embassy in Berlin. Today, I received feedback that only biometric photos from a photo studio are now accepted (which is no problem). They also requested an "explanation of how I work remotely in Thailand."
On Friday, I submitted the following documents: proof of residence in Germany, a freelance work contract, a certificate from my employer confirming that it is a remote position, and my German business registration.
What exactly should I explain now? That I only need internet and a laptop, that the time difference is not an issue, etc.?
Thank you so much in advance for your help!

Be clear to say that your work doesn't involve any Thai clients or businesses. You can also say you chose Thailand because of its fine culture, weather, blah blah

Explain the nature of your business. What do you do online? How do you make money with it? Give them like a workflow for your business in the form of a letter.
Good luck! I'm waiting on a word from Berlin as well, it's been 14 days / 8 work days ...
