What was the process and timeline for getting approved for a Workcation visa in Thailand?

Hi group,

I got approved, thank you for the information here!!

I had been ROMing this group since last year, but was really nervous about applying until I was approved. 😅

I’d like to share my experience as an example.

📍 Embassy: Hanoi (Vietnam)

🗂️ Category: Workcation

⏱️ Timeline:

* Submitted: 18th June Wed (e-mail: 8:27 AM）

* Approved: 24th June Tue (e-mail: 1:25 PM)

There was no request for additional documents.

📁Document:

Cover letter and portfolio

I included:

* Upwork documents (certificate of earnings + profile screenshot)

* Screenshots of my blog and creations (including LINE stickers)

* A remote-work freelance service agreement from a Japanese client

My Upwork earnings were about 10k USD (last July ~ this June), I didn’t include documents for my other income sources.

Writing an English cover letter was a bit tough for me as a Japanese, we are not familiar with it 😅

I included the following in my cover letter; summary of my freelance work, my purpose for staying in Thailand, a list of portfolio items (starting on the next page)

Document Indicating Current Location

* Hotel reservation documents (from OTC)

* Passport stamp showing entry to Vietnam

Financial Evidence

* I used Wise screenshot and statements (in USD and JPY, mixed)

* 6 months of records

* I was gradually saving up money, reached 500kTHB 1 month before I applied

I hope this helps 😃
