Would anyone who has already applied through the Dubai consulate and owns a company be able to kindly assist me in understanding the correct documentation to bring? Your help would be greatly appreciated. 🙏🙏

Hi! Does the condo lease contract require to apply DTV visa on Evisa website as remote worker?

Hi All. So I am about to apply for the DTV for remote work. The company I work for is owned by my brother though, and I am not sure if that could potentially be an issue.

I was thinking to combine my letter of employment, a pdf of the about us page on his website that shows me along with his other employees, and then the incorporation proof from the government website (which shows the company owner).

Do you think the fact that it's a company owned by a family member could be an issue?

Next week I am gonna apply in Jakarta and wanted to summarize all documents.

After the process I will share a detailled explanation about my experience there.

I will hand over in an ENVELOPE:

- Visa Application form

- 2 passphotos 3.5*4.5

- 5.6 Million IDR in cash

- INTRODUCTION LETTER applying for DTV workcation category, confirming can work remotely,

explaining my work, mentioning employer, position, salary and ability to take care of myself and my keen interest to live in Thailand

- REMOTE WORKING CONTRACT - employee can preform their duties remotely from any location abroad with wet stamp and signature from both parties

- 1 PAYSLIP from 1.10.24 (started to work for US Company with 1.09.24)

- BANK STATEMENTS: transfered savings from brooker and other accounts over 14k € a few days ago to wise account. On 1.10.24 first salary receivement, usually had just a few hundreds or thousands € on Account over the last couple month, provide 1-2 months statements

- PROOF OF CURRENT LOCATION: AIRBNB in Jakarta, receipt and pdf for visa purposes

-TRAVEL INSURANCE - it is mentioned in contract and supports the ability to support myself

I am from Germany, 2024 have been in Thailand for more than 180 days. More or less since 15.3 (with border runs and short travels) - stamp expiration 18.10

I have a rental Agreement(in Thailand) from 01.09.24 - open end.

In the remote working contract, which I signed in August, I have my current Thai address in - could ask for change, if necessary.

Any recommendations or adjustments? Appreciate any kind of help 🙏🏽

Taipei DTV UPDATE: Same Day (or 2-3 days max) processing.

Went to Taipei’s Thailand “embassy” today and here’s what I learned

1. Foreigners can apply just with a passport and the visa application + your required documents (bank statement printed + soft power or proof of your remote work etc.

2. 9-11:30am every business day for visas, you get a number and they will call you . Drop off passport and documents

3. Within same day you’ll be notified if your visa was approved or rejected (and they will explain why)

4. PAYMENTS: You only need to pay AFTER it’s approved in cash which is incredible. The fee is actually REFUNDABLE if it doesn’t get approved.

5. The cost: 11,000 TWD (approx $360 USD)

Got my DTV today via London. Thought I would share details.

Applied online on Monday at 18.19 with

Passport, Photo

Proof of funds - current account, Sept statement only.

Letter from employer confirming employment, salary, and able to work remotely.

Flight dates & number only

Hotel name, with location only

Paid visa fee

Tuesday at 16.55 got email asking to upload employment contract. Did this pretty immediately. Clear instructions on email on how to do this.

Today (Thurs) at 19.52 approval email with visa attached.

It was very straight forward🙂

Hi quick question! If I was to get the Thailand digital nomad visa does my partner who is in a civil partnership with me have to get one too?

Thankyou!

WORLD RECORD DTV APPROVAL! 🤩

Using E-visa, we submitted our DTV applications (US passports) to the Los Angeles consulate at 4am and got approved before 1pm the SAME DAY…less than 9 hours!! (Really about 4 hours since they don’t open until 9am.)😳😎

From researching posts, I expected at least a 1 month processing time and the possibility of it being rejected or delayed with additional info requests.

Thanks to everyone’s excellent posts, we double checked everything and provided extra info. I really appreciated the information and examples. Even though we are a married couple, we applied individually under the remote worker category as we are co-owners of our LLC (short term rentals).

Here’s the list of information we provided:

1. Bio page of passport (doubled checked names and spaces on self populating application)

2. Recent photos

3. Copies of drivers license to show location

4. 6 months of individual personal bank statements with a summary cover letter for each of us

5. Employment (see below)

Employment:

1. Cover Letter (intro, what our business is and what we love about Thailand)

2. Affidavit (stating facts about our business)

3. Proof of business

a. State Cert of Org

b. State NCO form

c. State Business License

d. City business license

4. Remote Worker Policy (thanks to whoever suggested this!)

5. Business proof of Income:

a. Financial Statement (I created a Profit and Loss Statement from Jan 1)

b. Screenshot of all bank deposits since Jan 1

c. business bank statements since Jan 1 (just 1st summary page).

Good luck!

Grateful for this group for all the information leading to approved DTVs in Vientiane for me and my partner, now giving back. Both are under Remote Work Category - we are both on consulting contracts for different charities in other countries. We both hold Philippine passports.

1st application, my application submitted on Sept 24 with the following documents:

- Cover letter detailing the list of documents, the nature of my remote work highlighting thr job can be done through my laptop, my intentions for staying in Thailand - to immerse myself in its people and culture, as well as scuba dive around.

- Certification of consulting services signed by employer mentioning: ability to work remote and remuneration information.

- Consulting contract

- Payslips / Proof of payment from employer in the last 6 months

- Bank statements for the last 6 months from 2 banks both with more than 500K THB

- Proof of current location: Laos entry stamp, Vientiane hotel booking

- Additional supporting documents: TM30, Flight to Bangkok

Immigration officer asked one question: What is your work? I explained it's training staff from other countries remotely.

Received the approved DTV on September 26.

2nd application by my partner, submitted the same exact documents on October 4. Note she had an ED Visa and a reentry permit when she applied. Was asked one question: Are these your payslips, the response was yes. Approved on October 8.

A huge relief after getting approval for us both. Thank you to this group and everyone for being generous of timely updates.

I'm so happy while I write this. My DTV has just been approved a couple of minutes ago. I applied in Seoul, Korea (I'm not Korean, but Korea is my "home" country as I've lived here for the past 15 years) on August 26th, was requested additional documents (a resume in English) on Sept 2nd, and the status changed to "Pending Approval" on Sept 5th. I'm thankful the Embassy took its time to approve it, so I wouldn't "lose" almost 2 months of the visa validity time.

Applied as a remote worker.
