hello.

What I must have for a certification from my company when I want have a DTV Visa ?

Hi I need some advice as I am applying for DTV. For employment, what documents will be sufficiently good to upload? I have a remote job and work from India right now. I do not want my employer to know right now that I am planning to shift to Thailand. Will the contract with the employer work?

Hello! Has anyone here successfully applied for the DTV visa as a business owner with a company incorporated outside Thailand?

I'm wondering what documents you used to prove your company's legitimacy and financial activity. My company is in its first year, so I don't have any filed tax returns yet - only one year of business bank statements showing cash flow.

Did the consulate accept management accounts, or do they require statutory accounts that have been filed with your country's registry?

Any insights would be really helpful!

I work remotely for an Australian company and I am currently in Australia, on a working holiday visa, looking to apply for the remote worker DTV.

My visa ends soon but I will continue to work remotely. I will have the relevant employment documents and payslips/bank statements etc, but do you think there will be any issues as I am not originally from Australia? I'm not sure whether to apply from here or go elsewhere to apply (maybe Vietnam).

Any advice welcome, Ta.

Hi all,

I have a question regarding where to upload additional documents. Since the provided fields are designated for specific documents, where can I add extra files such as my condo contract in Bangkok, cover letter, CV, payslips, proof of self-employment registration, salary transaction statements, health insurance documents, and similar paperwork?

i know I can merge files together, but i would like to be sure I upload them in the correct field.

I hope someone can help clarify this.

Thank you!

I got a request for the following documents, but I'm not really sure what they are asking from me? I already provided them with my employment contract, my last 6 payslips, and a document from my company stating that I'm allowed to work remotely. Why do they now ask for payroll and a business establishment document? I mean I guess I can obtain a certificate of registration, but what are they asking on the payroll for? Did they maybe just miss the payslips or is this something else they want?

Hello! My partner and I are going to be applying for DTV in Barcelona soon. We both work online for different companies. Can you kindly suggest what documents you provided to prove this ?

Thai visa website says “Employment contract or employment certificate in their country or professional portfolio showcasing digital nomad, remote worker, foreign talent or freelancer status”

I have worked for the same company for 4 years so my employment contract is that old. Would I supply this document and my last few pay stubs ?

Request this document from your employer in advance.
