Hi, i applied for the dtv digital nomad visa. Everything seems fine but the proof of that I can work from Thailand. I send them my work contract that says the employer can work from where he wants. That doesn’t seem to be enough. But when I asked my company they say: it’s written in your contract we can’t give you anything else. What can I do now? Anybody who had similar experiences?

Hi all, I’m a German software developer planning to spend winter in Thailand and looking into the DTV. I own a 3-month-old company with an active German client; I was employed by the same client for nearly two years before incorporating. I can show 3 months of personal bank statements over 500,000 THB, plus company bank statements and invoices.

I’m currently in Thailand and considering applying in Hanoi due to faster processing. Any opinions / tips on my eligibility, application docs to provide and applying in Hanoi would be highly appreciated. ☺️🙏

What documentation have others provided for successful proof of self employment? I'm a 1099 with an American based LLC.

Is there anything that would be advisable NOT to provide?

Required things for DTV-VISA from the Thai embassy site.

"Evidence of sufficient financial assets (at least 500,000 THB) which can take the form of:

-6-month official bank statement (crypto or other investment statements are not accepted)

-Payslips

-Sponsorship letters"

I'm curious about the last two.

Can a sponsorship letter be from the (homeland) company that you work for?

"Payslips"; I understand that they could be used as support for the fact that you are employed, but they are listed under "evidence of sufficient financial assets". Or this is perhaps at a later stage, similar to the 65k thing for non-O?

Hello, I’m working at an info tech company as a consultant on a contract basis. I have all documents of hiring, pay slips and all the info required to show proof of employment

My primary question is working as a consultant on a contract basis falls under employment verification or it has to be more of a permanent full time job

Hey yall! Applying for the DTV workcation from the states Using Evisa website. My question is regarding the proof of employment document it requests… it seems i can only upload one document. Should it be my LLC registration or a letter explaining that I am sole proprietor of said LLC and how i make income remotely?

Hey gang, I'm about to apply for the DTV from Australia, and I want to make sure I've covered all my bases before submitting. If applying as a remote worker, are payslips a NECESSITY, or will proof of my employment (ie contract) suffice? The website is sparse when it comes to requirements, and I don't want to have it rejected. I've been researching posts within the group, but still can't gauge if they're 100% needed.

Thanks in advance!
