Can anyone link me to information/requirements and application form for Non Immigrant O visa (retirement) in Taiwan please? I see all other categories on the TTEO (edit: Thai embassy in Taiwan) website except this one. (Note: I am not permanent resident here.)

And if you have any tips/info to share about the process for this visa in Taiwan, that'd be much appreciated.

Thank you!

Hi everyone, Hope you are having a good day.

Has anyone recently applied for the DTV visa in any of the neighboring countries around Thailand?

I would love to hear about your experiences and any tips that might help as I want to apply for it soon.

I've got 2 months left on my current visa so I'm not in a rush.

Thanks for reading.

For those that applied in Taiwan, do they ask to see the contract for remote employees? and do they check the starting and finishing date? also

Has anyone applied for remote work and the company is a sole proprietorship, where a business registration isn't required?

DTV Interview in Taipei – Seeking Advice & Insights

I’ve been asked to come in for an interview as part of my application for the DTV (Digital Nomad Visa) in Taipei, and I have to admit, I’m a bit surprised by this request. Given that my situation seems to align perfectly with the DTV’s requirements, I didn’t anticipate needing an interview.

For context, I work for an American company and want to work remotely from Thailand (because I am literally allowed to work anywhere and I have to travel anyways very often to Asia-pacific region for work, of course excluding Thailand). I’ve provided proof of my financial independence, my work contract, and the business license of the company I work for etc.

I’ve never applied for a Thai visa before and have always entered the country under the tourist exemption scheme (30 days, and recently 60 days). Therefore, I can guess maybe they have questions about my frequent entries and exits from Thailand over the past 1.5 years? The honest truth is, my business travel schedule has kept me outside the country most of the time, so I haven’t overstayed or violated any visa regulations. When I am in Chiang Mai, I’ve been living with my boyfriend (who is not Thai national but has an elite visa).

With that in mind, I’d love to hear from anyone who has experience with this interview process in Taipei. I’ve read some posts, but I still woud like to ask:

1. General overview of the interview process: What’s the vibe? Is it more formal or laid-back?

2. How was the overall interview? What questions did they ask for you?

3. TM30 question: Do they ask about TM30 registrations?

I’d really appreciate any guidance or reassurance you can offer. Thank you so much to this community for your help!

DTV APPROVED in Taipei City, Taiwan!

Workcation version - I own a business in the US.

Walked into Thailand Office in Taipei today at 9:45M - no appointment needed or available.

Asked to return with additional docs before 11:30am.

Asked to return at 3:30pm for results. Results approved.

Paid 11,000 TWD (local currency) and only after being told I was approved was I asked for this

Asked to return tomorrow between 4-5pm to pick up Visa!

DTV Documents provided:

-Passport

-One Copy of passport

-Visa Application form (choose Other and write DTV for what you are applying for...I had to fix this)

-6 months bank statements for the bank account I receive payments from my company (paycheck from business goes here)

-6 months bank statements for the bank account with a balance of 500k baht or more

-Letter of authorization to work remote on company letterhead (I am owner so written and signed by me)

-ADP Paystubs 6 months (I pay myself as an employee of my company)

-Business Certificate with government seal ($5 in Florida to obtain online)

-Business Registration page (Sunbiz.org for Florida business)

-Two inch photo (only needed one...they gave the other back) stapled to application

Then they asked for additional documents:

-Contract for business showing my name, customer name, and my company name

-payment from customer (photocopy of check) matching contract above - highlighted my name and customers name

-Proof check was deposited into my business account (and covers my payroll amount)

-invoice matching payment above to same customer

-IRS page showing tax ID (my CPA had emailed this to me like 5 years ago…not sure where to get it online otherwise)

-Updated November statement showing account balance (I had prepared a few days before in November so my last statement was October. I applied Dec 2 and they wanted November as well by that time. She also said I could show her the balance on my phone and would have asked me to screenshot and email it to her)

Hope this helps! Thank you for all the help in this group.f
