Just got my Visa approved! It took many months as I originally had applied for LTR because I meet all the requirements but there was an issue with my employment situation regarding me being a contractor and my contracting company not willing to release financials, so I switched to DTV and the process took about a month. I used THAI VISA CENTRE - visa agent. After they submitted everything to the LA embassy I flew to Thailand and my visa was issued after about 15 days. Now all I have to do is fly out of Thailand to activate it.

I got my DTV yesterday in Laos. I applied as a freelance digital nomad. It was all quite straightforward. I went to the embassy to pay last Tuesday, then on Friday they notified me that I would be interviewed this Wednesday (Thursday and Monday were Thai public holidays, so that probably slowed things down). The interview was really quick, they just asked me to confirm what I do and asked to see my bank balance in the bank app on my phone. They also asked if I already rent a place in Thailand. About an hour later my visa was approved.

Before going to Laos, I paid a small fee to an agency in Bangkok that helped me make sure my application was strong enough and apply through the official website, but I still had to come here, pay and do the interview in person. I used the agency partly because I was unsure my application would be accepted, as I work freelance. The agency were very helpful and told me to provide examples of my work and a letter explaining what I do.

Today I entered Thailand overland from Laos. The border official didn't ask me a single question.

My ED visa is expiring soon and I plan to apply for DTV as digital nomad. I m Singaporean and have a remote part-time job from Singapore.

I had Ed visa for past 2 years before DTV but have also been working remotely part-time with Singapore company while holding that Ed visa.

When I apply for DTV, do u think it’s better for me to show my contract with Singapore company while holding Ed visa here?

Or should I do a new employment contract showing recent dates?

Anyone’s experience with applying at Thai embassy in Singapore?

I wanted to share my experience so far with applying in Phnom Pehn for the DTV. I used Issa Compass out of Bangkok to help me.

Application Submitted: April 19

Application went to "Pending" Status: April 21

Application Type: Muay Thai - Cooking

As of this morning, my application is still pending. I haven't been asked to provide further documents. Today is the 14th business day since my application was accepted. I was hoping that I would have the DTV by now, but I wanted to share that it seems to be taking longer in Cambodia. Curious to see if anyone else is here and waiting like me?

DTV approved

* Consulate: New York

* Category: Workcation (remote employee of a company in the United States)

Documents submitted:

* Driver's license as proof of residence

* Bank statement for proof of funds of at least 500,000 THB

* Employment contract

The same day the visa application was submitted, I received a request from the consulate for additional documents:

(1) A bank statement with at least $16,000 USD - my balance in the statement was more than 500,000 THB, but it looks like each embassy has their own minimum in USD (I've seen someone mention Los Angeles requires $17,000), so I requested an updated statement from my bank and resubmitted one which was above their required amount.

(2) A detailed description of my job duties and a job description that states my position can be worked remotely - I was expecting this because the employment contract I submitted didn't make any mention of remote work. I resubmitted a document with my job description listing the duties, and since it also doesn't make any direct mention of remote work, I attached the approval from my employer to work remotely abroad.

Approval timeline: The initial visa application was submitted on 17 Mar, and the status changed to Pending Approval on 10 Apr. The status remained at Pending Approval until 5 May, so I emailed the consulate requesting an update since this is considerably longer than the other approval timelines I've seen. They responded the next day that it will be approved as soon as possible, and I received the visa today.

[My Experience Getting the DTV in Paris – April 15 to May 7, 2025]

Hi everyone!

I’d like to share my full experience applying for and receiving the Thailand Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) via the Royal Thai Embassy in Paris. I hope this helps those of you who are preparing your applications. Please read my posts carefully before asking the questions.

1. Application Submission:

I submitted my application online on April 15, 2025, via the official Thai e-visa portal. Paris is the only processing option, since I’m currently based in France. I am holding an Asian passport (so I am a foreigner). I am using Workstation type.

2. Initial Review & Document Upload:

Shortly after submitting, I received confirmation that my application was under review. A few days later, I was contacted by the embassy via email and asked to submit an additional document. I uploaded the revised document promptly via the same portal. So, to sum up, I uploaded what the embassy is asking for:

* Document indicating current location (Residence permit)

* Financial evidence: an amount of no less than 500,000 THB (bank statements), using only 1 account

* Latest payslip

* Employment certificate

* My activities explanation

3. Processing Time:

From submission to final approval, the whole process took 22 days.

* Application submitted: April 15

* Additional document requested & submitted: April 22

* Status changed to “Pending Approval”: May 5

* Visa approved and issued: May 7

I’m really excited to have received my visa and to begin this next chapter in Thailand.

Hope this helps, and good luck to everyone applying!
