I just recently registered my business and am not going to be operating until later in the year. So I don't have any evidence apart from the business registration. Is that enough evidence of self employment to get the DTV visa?

Besides that, I can meet all other requirements (e.g. 500,000k in the bank).

I saw quite a few folks here requested to provide the most recent tax return as additional supporting documentation. Now it’s 2025 Jan and technically I should prepare 2024 tax return but haven’t been able to collect all info needed yet. In this case can we use 2023 tax return?

I would like to thank this group for helping me get approved for the DTV. visa for remote worker without need for additional documents. I didn’t get the Visa by email. I had to download it from the website. If you did not get your email, there is a function on the website where you can download it.

I submitted the visa application to the Royal Thai embassy of Los Angeles on January 6, 2025. It was issued today.

The expected wait time was three weeks.

Here is what I included

-A letter authorizing remote work in Thailand, which I actually forgot to sign

-A letter with the links to all of my advertisements related to my remote work, including my website

-My professional résumé and link LinkedIn

-Screenshots of my website and advertisements that I have created

-Photographe

-Drivers license with current address

-Voter Registration with current address

IRS letter with current address

-Six months of bank statements with ฿500,000 baht, front page only

-The original IRS letter with the tax ID number for my company that was issued to me

-The companies’s articles of organization

-Registration from the Secretary of State that I downloaded from the website from the year of 2023

So yesterday, I was reading that someone stated that specifically they needed to put that they were not to work in Thailand and I had forgotten that, and upon looking at my letter, I forgot to sign it. Since I own the company as a single member, I had to write the letter to myself from myself.

So I added the letter I signed it. I sent it to the visa department and I woke up this morning and I got no email and I got a message from their line information that they would ask for it if they needed it.

I went over to the website where my applications were, I clicked on the tab, and I noticed that it had been approved

I did not get the email however I nobody responded when I emailed, but I noticed it on the left toolbar. There is a function where you can download the visa and now I have it.

I did not have to submit any salary or statements of transfer or show any of the detail of the statements, they approved it based on my tax return, and my letter with the stated annual salary

Thank you to anybody that has answered my questions in this group. You’ve been very helpful, I was able to get this and not any less than the time prescribed, I didn’t have to submit anything additional.

Hey, all! I am finishing my visa application (DTV) and am on the last page. Just had a few questions before I submit; 1 & 2 seem pretty straightforward. 3, are they asking for my current US address, like a bill addressed to me? Not sure what they’re askin’ for. 4; can this be my US account, or do I need a Thai banking account? I do have a Wise account, that I could transfer funds into, however I’d prefer to keep it in my US account. 5; I do have a letter from a Muay Thai gym, however, it is 6 photos, and the maximum picture size can be no larger than 3MB. I have a file compressor, but I’m not sure which of the 6 files to upload.

I leave on the 22nd, for Pattaya. Hope this is enough time.

Thanks in advance!

1. Biodata page of passport or travel document

2. Photograph taken within the last 6 months

3. Document indicating current location

5. Proof of activity to attend the activity or letter of appointment from hospital/medical center

When I initially applied for the DTV visa, I was in my home country. After weeks of going back and forth submitting some documents, the date of my flight was due and I decided to just go to Thailand and get a tourist visa on arrival.

It’s been 2 months and the initial DTV visa application is still open. I was in Thailand on a tourist visa all that while. I left Thailand few days ago and flew to Indonesia.

I attempted to submit more documents into that original avtive DTV application while being in Indonesia, but now they are asking for a flight ticket from my home country to Thailand. But I had already left my home country -> Thailand and now I’m in Indonesia.

The question is, do I need to be in my home country when applying for a DTV visa? Does it matter if I send them a flight ticket from Indonesia to Thailand?

Just reading on some different embassy sites about documents and i quote from Vientiane embassy" Copies of agency/school/institution/company documents must be signed by an authorized person and stamped with the agency/school/institution/company seal.

Does this mean any business number registration or letter head needs to be notarized by an embassy in home country or just have the letterhead stating its origin EG company letterhead

Dtv question.

I am a realtor self-employed with an S corporation in America for 20+ years with proof of income. I have a team with agents to cover my business while traveling. I am not necessarily working in Thailand but trying to eventually retire there. What documentation will I need to provide to get approved for DTV Visa?

Hi, does anyone know if the documents submitted to obtain the DTV need to be submitted every year for the 5 years?

In addition, does a DTV visa holder have to request permission to leave Thailand?

Any info will be very appreciated. Thank you

has anyone ever been asked for further documents but then got rejected? please let me know why
