Workcation (digital nomad) DTV approved in 5 working days - London 🇹🇭 🇬🇧
June 12th - Applied online, via the freelancer/business owner route, selecting the Royal Thai Embassy in London.
June 15th - Received request for two additional documents (one more proof of current location, and three months of recent utility bills) which I sent within the hour.
June 18th - Received e-visa in my inbox.
Notes:
I sent everything as requested in the initial application but was still asked for the two documents above. Balance on statement ending on 10th June was around £14k, and I only sent this one month statement. The statement showed a starting balance of £12k though, and an end balance of £14k so that would have shown it wasn’t just deposited in the last month. I wasn’t asked for more bank statements, but I did include three months of payslips in my original application.
Documents I attached:
Cover letter confirming type of DTV I was applying and that I understood employment was prohibited and all my earnings would be from outside Thailand.
Employment certificate on my company headed paper, signed by hand and stamped with the company stamp, detailing my position, salary, and confirmation that I am a remote worker and can work from anywhere in the world.
Companies House document showing I owned the company, and that the company had been incorporated in 2011.
Three months of payslips from one client only (not all my clients) showing a steady income.
Flight ticket and hotel confirmation email.
Driving licence as proof of current address and location (but was later asked to send another document to prove my current location, such as three months of any utility bill, so I sent my last three mobile phone bills which was accepted).
Key tip: keep your documents in order, make sure all fields are correct, combine into one single PDF with a cover letter at the front and all the supporting documents after that in the order listed above, and keep an eye on emails in case further documents are requested. PM me if you have any queries 😊
So anyone have made a visa with an agent ? I want to apply for the dtv visa and i want to take an agent to make it for me he is doing it for 9 months he tell me can i trust them ? He tells me he will apply for me via cooking classes (i wanted to try via muay thai) but he told me many rejections by muay thai so should i trust it ? They ask 1000 euro for all costs of process and documents
Happy to share that I received my LTR-P visa by email yesterday. It was a fairly simple process which did not need any Visa agency help. I am grateful to many in this group for providing guidance and helpful tips. Here is the timeline for my application:
April 23, 2025- Online application submitted to BOI with income and asset documents
April 28, 2025- Additional income documents requested by BOI. Had to submit the 2024 Form 1099 to support the income reported in 2024 tax return. Since I do not have any pension income, I was also asked to provide my investment portfolio which generated the passive income
April 29, 2025- Additional asset documents requested by BOI to verify liquid assets of $100K. The funds in Fidelity money market account was not acceptable
May 15, 2025- I submitted AXA insurance policy to avoid prolonged correspondences to prove that funds in Fidelity money market funds were fully liquid
May 29, 2025- Received email confirming my qualification endorsement
June 4, 2025- Received the qualification endorsement letter which was to be included with e-visa application
June 7, 2025- Applied online for e-Visa at Thai Embassy in Washington DC
June 11, 2025- Visa approval email received with e-Visa attached
I applied for a 90 day non O visa based on marriage about 20 or so days ago, then they asked me for more information about two days later witch I sent them on the Evisa. I haved booked and paid for my plane tickets for jest over two weeks time but haven't heard back from them. Anyone any idea? What I should do.
Just enterd Thailand trough Bangkok airport first time with the DTV visa. printed the dtv, and dtac. Handed it too the officer. She did not ask me anything. Also not about my student visa before 🙂
My husband and I have started the visa process. It seems fairly straightforward, although I'll probably have more questions as we move through the process.
Is it worth it to hire an agent to do some leg work and/or review the required documentation? If so, what's the average cost?
We'll be staying in Krabi when we come back from tidying up our affairs here. So if we need to meet up with an agent hopefully they're near Krabi.
