Denied in Taipei🥲

Type: remote worker (for 1 company, not freelance)

Situation: coming from non B visa

Heartbroken to say that I was denied in Taipei. It is a specific situation, as I have worked in Thailand, legally for 3 years. I accepted a remote job and came to Taipei to switch my visa type to DTV.

Even with a current contract and first payment made by current company (+600,000 tbh banked and consistent income for past 6 months from past job), they denied because they wanted me to have 6 months of income *from my current contract.*

Note: I also had everything else in order, including the employment letter (stating remote position), company registration documents etc.

The issue they had, specifically, was was that I hadn’t been in my current role for 6 months. Pretty much they told me to leave and try again in 6 months time when I am established at my new job. There was no remedying it with them.

— and genuinely this was so shocking because I’d never heard of this being the case for anyone else before. Am I wrong on this?

So, if you are coming from a non B and are switching to remote work, please be aware that this is the way Taipei approaches this scenario.

If you have a similar work history but successfully gotten a DTV visa, can you please comment? I’d really like to understand what else I can do and how I can better plan my application in the future.

Hi All, do you any experience or suggestions about the impact of application of work visa ( one year) in another country while I am holding a DRV visa in Thailand? I am afraid it will impact on validity of my DTV visa in Thailand. Thanks, guys!

I am guessing that this has been a lot on here but I have only just joined. I am looking at moving to Thailand in May/June. I want to stay there permanently. I am looking for visas but having a bit of difficulty. I do not have a degree so a visa B is out. I also have some savings, but nowhere near enough to apply as a wealthy person. I would need a working visa, but also do not have a job lined up yet as I don't want to start working immediately. Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated.

Please can you recommend any agency who is doing non b visa

Have all the papers need someone to help me to submit all the process

Hey guys 👋.Has anyone any experience applying for digital nomad visas? My company have requested I have a working visa in Thailand that they will approve if I want to work remotely for a few months.

I am applying on the official Thai visa website. Can the having 500000 tbh in bank be swapped for a couple of months bank statements or do you have to have the 500000 in your bank when applying and on arrival ?

I have all other documentation just do not have 500000 in my account currently. Is there a way around this ? Thanking you ,🙏

Can anyone recommend a service to successfully apply for a business visa?

Because I already had 2 rejected requests.

Anyone know what the 2 day processing time at the Thai Embassy in Vientiane, Laos means? I have an appointment for Monday Nov. 11th at 9:30AM. Does that mean I'll get back my passport by Wednesday morning?

I'm switching from Elite visa to Work visa. I'm presuming the airline will want to see a return ticket to Thailand before boarding me to fly to Laos, and it would be great to be able to book a flight for Wednesday afternoon/evening so I can return to my normal life on Thursday.

What's the worst case scenario for when I would get the documents back? Anyone have recent experience to share? Thank you!
