Hello, I am planning to apply for a DTV Workation visa from Belgium, and one of the requirements is to have 500,000 baht in a bank account for at least one month.

My question is: when I go to extend my visa for 180 days, will the immigration authorities require me to show that 500,000 baht in my bank account again? Or will the income from my freelance business count just as well?

Per la richiesta di Dtv dall'italia non serve la partita Iva, ti basta dimostrare di lavorare da remoto. Anche io la sto chiedendo e non ho p.iva

Don't you think the Vietnam Embassy is going to look twice at an Italian criminal record check?

Ask directly to the Thai embassy in Bulgaria whether your specific status is elegible for them or not

They can ask for a complete date stamped photo of every page of your passport . You can ONLY apply from your passport country or proof you have permanent residence/leave to remain in the country you apply from

Email the embassy responsible for ur area.

It varies embassy to embassy.

Even Vietnam one embassy says it will except temporary residence the other says it won’t except any forginers
