Hello everyone,

I would like to ask for some advice regarding the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV), based on my personal situation.

My main source of income comes from property rental. I manage a rental property that provides regular income, and this has been my main source of earnings for several years. I don’t have a classic online or remote job, but I can clearly demonstrate sufficient funds and financial stability if required.

I’ve spoken with an agency that claims many “traditional” DTV applications are being rejected or delayed for weeks, while they offer a fast-track option (1–3 days) at a high cost.

Before considering that route, I’d like to understand whether my profile (rental income / asset-based income rather than online employment) is generally acceptable for a standard DTV application.

Has anyone here with a similar background (property rental, passive or asset-based income) successfully applied for the DTV through the regular embassy process? If so, where did you apply and what kind of documentation was most important?

Any real experiences or insights would be very helpful.

Thank you in advance.

Considering applying for DTV online via Thailand UK Consulate/Embassy as UK citizen. If main income is from property rent and stock trading and interest - what category and basis should I use? [Note that I do NOT operate via a company, just as a private individual! Thus, not working for any company!]

I am an 1099 independent contractor/freelancer in US. I have had only one contract since I did contractor. The monthly income is minimal since I only need to work for them for a few hours each month. My main income source is from property rental. Am I eligible to apply for DTV? I am worried they will question my contractor income is not sufficient.
