Does it matter how the 500k Baht is stored on application of the DTV? If I have it within a mutual fund, 401k or an ETF account, would that be acceptable?

Are most embassies wanting the passport bio page photocopy in color or is black n white ok?

Without traveling before Thailand, is it possible to apply for Thailand DTV visa?

I am confuse. I was planning to apply for DTV visa. But some Thailand visa application center in Dhaka, Bangladesh saying without any previous Thailand travel history not possible to apply for DTV visa. I am a freelancer. I already mailed to embassy about it but didn't get any response yet.

Good morning everyone. 😊🇹🇭

I will soon apply for the DTV at the Thai embassy in Italy as a freelancer. 🇮🇹

If I wanted to apply for the DTV also for my wife 👰🏽‍♀️ (as my spouse), will I have to submit some documents for her too (bank statement, documents related to her work) or just the application together with mine?

Thanks to anyone who can help me 🙏🏼❤️

I am applying for DTV as remote worker though the embassy in Sweden and got asked for an additional document : "Employment Certificate". I already uploaded my Employment Contract and asked the embassy by e-mail what the difference between these documents were and got this fantastic response:

"They are not the same document. Please contact your company for more information."

The HR person in my company also got no clue as to what exactly is an Employment Certificate. We are about 20 people so not the world's biggest company, but still...

Can anyone here point me in a direction of what document it is exactly that I need the company to produce ?

NB: I already got the Remote Work Permission signed

Hello can someone please tell me where can I find a list of requirements to get a DTV through the medical appointment route? I already live in Thailand and have a type O visa based on retirement. If I leave the country will it be possible to switch to DTV? Thanks!

Hello everyone!

I just got my DTV approved at the Thai Embassy in Vientiane. I applied on Monday and just received it today (Wednesday).

It was very, very easy and I highly recommend applying for it there!

All you need is the following:

- Visa Application Form (with 2 x pictures)

- Passport copy of biodata page

- Document showing your current location (driver's license)

- Visa fee of 10,000 THB

- 6-month official bank statement showing a minimum of 500,000 THB

Proof of Purpose of Visit:

- For remote workers: Certificate of Employment, Employment Contract, personal tax return, and payslips (if applicable)

- Professional portfolio showing your business, including your resume/company profile and screenshots/photos of your business

Cover Letter including:

- Cover page and table of contents

- Self-introduction: name, age, passport number

- Statement of purpose

- Details about your company and the nature of the business

- Explanation of your workflow: how your freelance career operates and how you work remotely

- Assurance that you will not take away jobs from locals or take on local clients

But most importantly you need to have an appointment before going there which can be done online (I had booked mine a month in advance).

You can already go early in the morning and drop you application, regardless of your queue number.

Feel free to reach out if you have any questions!

Best of luck to all of you!

E-Visa from Canada,

Hello all I have a question if someone able to help me out please,

Anyone had experience when applying e-visa online in Vancouver Consulate and when asking Bank Statement approval Copy,( is mandatory to signed and stamp)the original copy from the Bank Manager?

Thank you any advice 🙏

Hi everyone,

Regarding the 500,000 THB requirement for the DTV Visa. If the funds are currently spread across different investment accounts, would it be acceptable to transfer the money to a Monzo (UK bank) account prior to applying (2 weeks), even though the new account wouldn’t reflect the 6-month holding period? I can provide proof of the source and trace the transactions back to the original accounts where the funds have been held for over 6 months.

Has anyone experienced this, or know if this would meet the financial requirements for the visa?

Thanks in advance for any insights!

(Asking for a friend, I already got my DTV approved in HCMC)
