I am a USA Citizen residing in Taiwan.

I applied online in Taiwan.

I work through my own LLC.

I gave them upon my original application:

A. a letter showing I work through my own LLC

B. my primary customer who wrote a letter confirming this along with the years of working together

C. the certificate of organization of my more than 10-year-old biz

D. my EIN

E. proof of my annual report filings for a decade

F. 4 months of my biz bank account getting payments

What in the world are they asking for?

It looks like a contract from my LLC to myself?

My LLC bank account sending money to my personal bank account?

I have no idea what else to submit...

Any advice is appreciated.

I am US citizen, who owns his own business in the US and I don't pay myself a salary but installments. I have shown that I have more than $500K baht requirement with supporting documents to show I own 100% of my business but I have been requested to provide the following below...

It's frustrating because my fiancé got approved with no problem as a business owner but I keep getting asked for more documents... Mind you this is with the Thai Embassy in Los Angeles, CA.

Has any other business owners had to provide the following:

* Other request documents: Guarantee letter from the company implies that you work remotely

* Other request documents: Employment contract or employment certificate from company

I would love and appreciate to hear some recent success stories!

I’m a DTV holder, my spouse has a 90 day tourist visa expiring at the end of the month. Both US citizens.

My spouse is applying as a dependent.

I’m trying to figure out the best place to apply in SEA or close.

I’d like to know:

-your country of citizenship

-Where you applied

-application and approval date

-specifics on bank statements (how many months/if funds needed in account the whole time or can be transferred in the last month like it was when I applied in Taiwan)

I lived in Thailand from Jun 23 - Sep 24 on a Non-OA retirement visa. I plan to visit in Feb for a few weeks. Would I have any issues on entering with a visa exemption as a US citizen?

I need to leave Thailand for a visa run for 4 days. I am an American with a Thai wife. I've been to Danang Vietnam, is there any other suggestions for destinations? It's a general question i know there are different things for different people but just wanted some destinations to think about.

I would like to apply for the DTV visa. What's the best way to do it in my situation, and which consulate should I use (preferably online)?

* US citizen, currently living in Mexico as a resident. I use a mailbox address in South Dakota for official mail, banking, taxes, driver’s license, etc.

* I have an online business (sole proprietorship) with volatile income which is enough to cover my expenses. I also have investments in stocks and index funds, which I can use to cover expenses if needed. For the business, it’s hard to provide client recommendations, but I have tax returns and 1099s from previous years.

* Planning to slow travel in Thailand and SEA starting early next year. Ideally, I’d like to apply online before arriving but can wait and apply in Vietnam or another SEA country if that’s easier.

Questions:

* Can I apply online at a US consulate or in Mexico, or should I wait until I’m in SEA?

* Can I use my business and income for the DTV, or is it better to go the “soft power” route (e.g., cooking, Muay Thai)? Does it affect using the DTV for 5 years, getting extensions etc, if I’m not pursuing those activities?

I'm a US citizen. On round the world trip currently.

I flew from Bangkok to Malaysia to exit Thailand so I could apply for the DTV Visa.

Am I misunderstanding something -- do I need to be physically in the US to apply for the DTV through the e-visa option?

Have no intention of flying back to the US this year.

DTV Address Verification (US Citizen)

The Thai Consulate (e-visa) requested a utility bill or driver's license for address verification to process my DTV. My driver's license is from another state and all the utility bills are in my dad's name.

Does anyone have any experience using alternative documents for address verification?
