I am freelancer but I never had customer yet, can I still apply for DTV?

I have required amount in bank account and have experience in my field but I'm starting my freelance activities and want to go Thailand on DTV. Are they gonna ask me proof that I have customer or is it not required?

Following all the posts in this group, I have seen some who are not interested or able to register as nomad digital workers to apply for this visa.

Remember there are other alternatives listed as Thai Soft Power Activities

So if you do not work online but want to apply, you can still qualify for the Thailand DTV Visa if you plan to engage in “Thai Soft Power” activities. These include:

Muay Thai courses

Thai cooking courses

Sports training

Medical treatment

Seminars

Music festivals

I have now made contact with a school for this cookery course in the north eastern province of Khon Kaen. Been there with my friend Wanida Somruecha for a meeting and tour of the facilities. This gives a different environment to engaging in this course in a city like Bangkok for instance. It is a small family run business on the outskirts of the city, but easy access to shopping malls, night markets etc. They also offer a mixed dormitory bed included in the price or help find accommodate nearby for 600 baht per night.

Classes are for a max of 5 students so you get the upmost attention to gain that extra knowledge too.

Is there a time limit to enter Thailand once your DTV is approved?

Hi All. So I am about to apply for the DTV for remote work. The company I work for is owned by my brother though, and I am not sure if that could potentially be an issue.

I was thinking to combine my letter of employment, a pdf of the about us page on his website that shows me along with his other employees, and then the incorporation proof from the government website (which shows the company owner).

Do you think the fact that it's a company owned by a family member could be an issue?

Do you have to show $14k in finances per person applied for or per family? I’m currently looking to get the DTV for myself and get DTV dependent visas for my son and wife, but I don’t currently have $42k to show. Confused on this rule.

Is there any Indian citizen who has applied for Thailand's new DTV visa for digital nomads? How was your experience? Did you face any issues with approval?

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.

What have people’s experiences been with processing times for DTV from the LONDON consulate?

I will be there for 12 days before flying to Thailand.

Enough time to get approved?

Thanks 🙏🏼
