I’m retired I’ve done AI search and it says there’s a little known about “purpose of visit” drop down section other than soft power and workcation, “financially independent” it says many retirees have made successful applications via this route. Is anyone else aware of this or successfully applied using this method please ? TIA
I’ve already applied twice and was rejected both times (the first time under the freelance work category, and the second time under soft power).
My question is: how long should I wait before applying again? And is it true that if you get rejected the first time, it’ll be harder to get approved in the next attempts?
Hello! I’m 4 months away from my departure. I am experiencing so many mixed emotions, but anywho! I wanted to get some validation on my plan:
I was initially going to go the soft power route and sign up with a Muai Thai gym, but I recently opened up my own private practice so now I’m considering the DTV route. Which I’m finding is more feasible, since I won’t be paying for classes. I meet all the requirements for the DTV & wanted to ask if I should just go that route instead? I still want to do muai Thai, but I could always pay for single classes when I get there because my plan is to travel to surrounding countries & I would hate being tied to classes that prevent me from traveling. What do you guys think?
Also, for those who are business owners (I’m a licensed therapist), did you write up your own letter saying you can work out of the country? Did you show any tax information? I’m curious what documents you showed.
Thank you in advance! I hope all that makes sense.
I applied for DTV in Malaysia(kuala Lumpur) provided all document they needed but still got rejected is it maybe because I had previous visa runs or anything else I showed a proof with the requested amount my working contract from Cyprus that clarify that I can work from anywhere but instead of providing proof of prolonged residence I put the address of my Thai girl friend with a paper that include her name and ID number and also others documents is there a way to find out why it was rejected ?
Looking to get digital nomad dtv. However i dont do any sort of work, my income has been stable through property i rent out in Australia and İ do have 500,000 baht in my bank account. Would it be possible to get the digital nomad dtv or should i look into soft power dtv?
İf i go for the soft power dtv it will be through muay thai training. İ also want to know if i can change gyms throughout the visa if needed or am i locked into the one gym i applied to the visa with (the reason id most likely need to change gym is due to moving to another city within Thailand)

My DTV Visa Experience — From the Thai Embassy in Paris for a family of 3. Approved for all of us.
I thought I’d share my full timeline and experience applying for the Digital Nomad (DTV) visa via the Workcation category, in case it helps anyone here 👇
My Application (Main Applicant)
* Applied: August 23
* Category: Workcation
* Documents submitted:
* 3 invoices from my company
* My French business registration (Kbis)
* My company website
* My personal Revolut bank statement showing over 15,000 EUR for the last 3 months
* All the other standard documents listed on the embassy website
On September 9, they asked for an additional ID photo.
Visa approved on October 4.
So overall, it took around 6 weeks.
My Daughter’s Application
* Applied: October 5
* I submitted:
* All required documents
* A sponsor letter + my bank statement (as the main applicant)
* For “proof of presence in France,” I used her savings account statement showing her postal address
On October 15, they requested:
* A proof of accommodation (attestation d’hébergement)
* a phone bill under my name (the mother)
Visa approved on October 17
My Husband’s Application
* Applied: October 7
* He didn’t have the 15,000 EUR for 3 full months, only for 1 month,
but we decided to try with his own personal statement anyway.
On October 16, they asked for the main applicant’s bank statement (mine) showing 15,000 EUR for 3 months.
Visa approved on October 17
Conclusion
In the end, one single account with 15,000 EUR maintained over 3 months was enough for the three of us (main applicant + spouse + child).
⏳ Processing time:
* Mine: ~6 weeks
* Family: ~10–12 days
Hope this helps anyone preparing their own DTV application from France 🇫🇷✨
