What was the process for obtaining a Workcation visa at the Thai embassy in Mexico City?

Question

My application was approved, and I'm posting this as a reference for those applying through  the embassy in Mexico City.

I decided to apply in my own country instead of going to a country in Southeast Asia because that way I avoid translations and misunderstandings in my documents, as well as unnecessary reviews.

Category: Workcation.

Application started on October 20th

Request for extra documents: October 21st (An extra ID in addition to the passport) as proof of current location.

Application accepted October 24th.

The documents were organized as follows:

FINANCIAL EVIDENCE
- 3 last work payslips
- 3 bank statements with + 500k baht

EMPLOYMENT CONTRACT
- Resume
- Employment contract
- Job Letter (stating that "I can work remotely from Thailand")
- Personal Letter Explaining My work
- 3 samples of my work (Portfolio)

CURRENT LOCATION
- Covering letter (Stating that I will follow all the rules established by the Kingdom of Thailand regarding the DTV)
- Passport scan (all pages)

I will answer any specific questions that applicants at this embassy may have. Cheers

Thank You for your helpful report 👍

Congratulations 👏👏👏

PRINT OUT THE EMAIL THAT HAS YOUR DTV VISA.

That's what you should do... print it out.

You may have to show PROOF of your DTV Visa to airline staff on check-in for your flight ✈️ to Thailand...even to the connecting airline staff. Or to the land border crossing entry Thai Immigration Officer.

Upon arrival into Thailand, show the DTV visa to the Thai Immigration Officer and look at the STAMP placed in your passport to be sure you are STAMPED in for 180 days.
