For reference purposes:

Just got approved for the DTV.

Type: workcation (full-time employee for a company in The Netherlands)

Location: Ho Chi Minh City

Application date: 6 Jan

Documents supplied:

6 months bank statements, Revolut, with closing balance of 15,500 euro (over 500,000 baht)

1 year worth of payslips

Employment contract, translated to english by myself (not legalised/authenticated)

Letter from my senior manager approving remote work specifically for the DTV (not legalised/authenticated)

Legalised Chamber of Commerce extract of the company i work for

On the 9th I got requested for extra documents, requesting more details of my role in the company, CV, portfolio, work examples and supporting materials demonstrating experience and qualifications.

Wrote a letter explaining my role, going into detail what work i do and what my daily workday looks like. Reminded them that i am a full-time employee, not a freelancer so I can't provide a portfolio, work examples, etc. Also mentioned due to the nature of my job, i am bound by a confidentiality clause.

Went to "pending approval" on the 10th.

Approved today.

So happy as I was a little afraid i would get rejected due to the documents not being authenticated by the dutch embassy as it was advised. Glad that stress is now over.

Finally, their visa was approved on January 10th, alleviating their concerns about potential rejection due to the document requirements.
