Can I get a workcation DTV if I have been living in Thailand for 3+ years?

I have a Non B but considering switching to the DTV next time I am back in the UK, but I have some concerns about being asked for additional paperwork, such as:

• Tax returns

• Proof of residence

• Payslips

I can provide all of these, but they would be Thai documents. I'm guessing this would be an issue, and possibly a red flag that I have a history of working in Thailand with a Non B?

I can provide all of the standard documents - corporation certification, letter from company, 500k in a UK account (can provide proof of address in home country with this).

Hi all,

Any advice or stories of your experience is appreciated.

I'm applying for the DTV visa as a remote worker and will be applying for my wife and son after mine is approved.

We are Canadians and currently traveling abroad.

We have read for fast approval that staying and applying from Vietnam is a good option, however, I've also read that I need to apply from my country where my remote work employment is located (Canada).

Has anyone here applied for a visa through Vietnam with success that is not a current resident there and just staying for a month?

Thanks in advance!

What are my best long term visas I should look into? I will be late 30s, from USA, fully retired living off my long term investments. Have no remote work nor plan or want to work at all. Is DTV soft power a good option? I don’t want to have to do cooking classes or Muay Thai every week for 5 years(though may end up doing Muay Thai anyways)

Should I just shell out the cash and get the elite?

Obviously once I hit 50 I will switch to retirement visa but need something for the next 11-12 years

I’ve made the mistake of letting my bank balance slip below 500k for the most recent statement date.

There was an emergency room visit bill that needed the funds.

Now, I’ve replenished the money above 500k, but it doesn’t show in the last statement.

Will I be able to show the current balance of my personal bank as well as investment account? Along with an explanation?

Or will my application be rejected?

Thoughts? TIA

Good day

An enquiry please as i am not sure and cant find the answer anywhere.

My husband and i will be coming on a retirement Visa and understand the 800000 must be in a bank account for 2 months. What i want to know is this.... How is the money reflected in bank account if we cannot open an account whilst being in our home country and also whilst waiting for the retirememt Visa, can we come on a visitors visa whilst waiting for it to be approved?

TIA

To qualify for the DTV do I need to have proof of stable monthly income or 500,000 baht in savings, or is it both?

I'd like to ask for information. My brother is a Norwegian citizen but intends to apply for a DTV visa in Denmark. The time it takes to deposit 500,000 baht into the account is only one month. My question is, do I have to be a Danish citizen or a resident of Denmark in order to apply for a DTV visa to enter Thailand?

Is this information correct? To apply for a DTV (Digital Nomad Visa) to travel from Denmark to Thailand, you do not need to have Danish citizenship. You can apply for this visa if you meet certain criteria, such as being at least 20 years old, having sufficient funds to cover your fees and residence expenses, and having proof of employment with a registered company.

🙏🏻

Hello Group,

For some reason my earlier post about my getting my DTV soft power was rejected so i try again! :-D

Just got my DTV soft power activities approved from the Royal Thai Embassy in Jakarta through a Thai culinairy training with House of Taste cooking in Bangkok. Highly recommended, applied for it on 6th of august and it was granted today!
