What tips can I take from an approved visa application for working remotely in Thailand?

Question

Approved from Canberra Australia!

Applied: 19th Feb
Approved: 24th Feb

I feel like my situation might be slightly different, so sharing it and hopefully people find it useful.

Ive been running a side hustle while working full time for the past 2 years because it’s not sustainable on its own yet. I explained in my cover letter that im looking to make a career change, quit my job and work on my business fulltime and it worked! (Also stated that I have enough savings to sustain me ofc).

Documents:
- bank statement (my bank does 1 statement for every 6 months)
- utility bill (proof of address)
- cover letter
- company registration
- remote working letter created myself. (Also specified that the company doesn’t operate in thailand and will not employ any Thais) 
- website screenshot/ portfolio and url

No additional documents requested
