What tips can I share about my Thai visa application experience from France?

Visa approved 🤩 just wanted to share my experience, as I found some helpful tips in this fb group!

- I applyed from France on march 8 (with french passport) ⏳

- They requested for further documents on march 13 at 5PM: my picture wasn’t in the correct format ❌

- Visa approved on march 14 at 1PM ✅

Regarding my situation: I work as freelance for a few years and have my self-employed company (auto-entreprise).

What I provided:

- a letter (french and english) explaining my freelance activity, links to my website and Linkedin profile, and listing the documents included in my visa application. —> I mentioned that I don’t have a bank statement for this month from my savings account because it’s a low-activity account, used mostly for saving. I sent a statement from february. And I included a recent statement from my current account showing monthly transactions for my income and expenses. I also provided my bank’s direct phone number for any further questions.

- A portfolio (in english only) of 12 pages presenting my services, some of my clients (with screenshots showing some projects or dashboards), reviews from my clients, again the links to my website and LinkedIn page, a recent invoice sent to one of my client + with a bank statement showing that payment. For the portfolio, I took a template on Canva and rebranded it to match with my business.

- A certificate from my bank showing the balance of my accounts dates on 8 march.

- Insee French certificate regarding my freelance company.

- and of course : passport, photo, internet invoice.

I was supposed to wait 3-4 weeks before getting an answer! They did it actually very fast!
