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
