I have only one client and have been earning over 2k, with payments deposited directly into my account. I also have the invoices.

I’ve been getting paid by this client since March 2025, and I’ll have over 500k Bhat accumulated for the past three months.

I want to know if that’s acceptable, or if they require multiple clients.

Has anyone been approved with just one current client?

I’ll be applying from Hanoi, sometimes in November.

In this case, what is better:

1/ A freelancer

2/ A remote worker.

In regards to digital arrival card - my mom is a senior and not internet saavy. She is visiting me in Thailand - how do I help her? Can she fill out a manual form at immigration? Please advise

I am planning to apply for DTV visa in Ho Chi Minh City. Is it okay if I enter Vietnam from Da Nang Airport and the address is in Da Nang city?

Report from London.

Day 1 - Submitted all docs (soft power cooking course)

Day 2 - Asked to book a flight (I hadn't initially) and provide an eticket from the actual airline website

Day 3 - Status changed to pending approval

Day 4 - Visa issued

It was really simple. The main challenge for me was that you can only submit one pdf in each category which has a maximum size of 3mb. Collating and compressing pdfs (ilovepdf is a great help)

My experience was a really simple and positive one. Just followed the application process and was careful not to make typos.

Any Questions then ask away.

London embassy question: Seen a number of people say the London embassy required actual flight ticket from the airline, I have a flight booked but it's a return flight and the return date is within 60 days (something like 55). Has anyone applied with and uploaded such a ticket, just worried they'll give me an METV instead (seen that's happened) if they see I have a return within 60 days. Going soft power Muay Thai route.

hello to all, does anyone know the current deadlines for a DTV from Laos? Thanks in advance

Bonjour a tous, quelqu'un connait les délais actuels pour un dtv depuis le laos? Merci d avance

Question for y'all: I generally work as a freelance software engineer, but at the moment, I contract with a large corporation (call it A) via a separate staffing company (call it B). So, instead of a freelance contract with A, I have an assignment agreement from B that mentions that I'll be working with A.

The visa application asks for evidence of "digital nomad, remote worker, foreign talent or freelancer status." So I wrote a cover letter (attached) explaining that I'm generally a freelance software engineer, and furthermore explaining the situation above about my current employment. In that PDF, I also include my assignment agreement per above, as well as several past contracts where I truly was a freelancer.

Should that suffice? Will there be any confusion about my employment situation?

Thanks!

I'll be applying for the DTV from within the UK. I would prefer to use the workcation option for the application but I have not kept 500k bhat in a bank account for 3 successive months. I would like to know whether it's still possible to submit an application with the final statement showing evidence of 500k or would it be more suitable to apply for the soft power DTV options?

Im travelling to thailand in october. My wife is thai national lives with me in ireland 20 years married Were goin to vietnam on day 59 of my 60 day.So When I return to thailand 21 days later How long can i stay. ?? Will I get another 60 days or just 30 days.Thanks.

Well. Exhausted after another draining day at immigration. All in all im just tired of how ridiculous the marriage visa is. It also doesn't help we live about 2 hours from immigration. One small mistake and entire application in the garbage.

Also it's wild. They had one lady processing any and all of the long term visas. After waiting 5 hours I was only the 4th to be seen that day. In a que of 19...

Few points of advice. Avoid the marriage visa like the plague, book online appointments and dont move 2 hours from immigration haha.

Cheers I need a drink or 8 now.
