Asking for some help in how to apply with 2 sources of income from outside of Thailand. I work for a UK based company remotely - this is a zero hour/casual worker contract. However, I have worked for this company since 2023 and the work is ongoing. I can show this through payslips, teaching timetables, etc. I also work on an online teaching platform as a freelance teacher - I don't earn very much, but it shows I have worked with them for the past 2 years with a small top up income. As for savings, I have 20,000 pounds in a UK bank account, which has been there for around 2-3 month. I am a bit worried that my contract is zero hour and casual worker contract - do you think this will be an issue? For my freelance teaching work - does it matter that I don't earn very much from this? Any help would be great. Thanks.

Hi everyone,

I'm preparing to apply for the DTV (Destination Thailand Visa) and would appreciate your input.

I currently work remotely for a company based outside of Thailand, earning around $1,000 USD/month.

In addition, I receive $2,000 USD/month from renting out a property in my home country.

Both sources are well-documented — I have a work contract, bank statements, and a rental agreement.

I also meet the required bank balance of 500,000 THB.

👉 My question is:

Will this combination of income (remote work + rental income) be viewed positively by the embassy?

Specifically, does the rental income help support or strengthen the application?

Thanks in advance for sharing your experience or any insights 🙏

Hi everyone,

I have a few questions regarding the documents requested by the Thai Embassy for the DTV visa application. I am currently working a remote job for a company that is not based in Thailand but they asking for Thailand company VAT and Thai ID. Anyone face this issue before, can advise for me please.

* Thailand Company VAT Registration Certificate (Phor Por 20) in Thai version ภพ. 20

* Properly scan clear copy of Thai ID (Both Sides) of authorized person and to be signed

I am looking to get a retirement visa but also might be bored in retirement and pick up some remote work for a non Thai company. . Can I do this on a retirement visa? Thank you in advance.

Hello, I am currently in Thailand and will soon start freelancing. I have seen several people doing the DTV process from Vietnam. I would like to know if I can telework for a few weeks from Vietnam to justify my income? Is it legally allowed? and which kind of visa do I need in Vietnam? (I am French)

Hey everyone, I have submitted my DTV visa application, and gotten a request for additional documents. Most of the documents were easy to get, however they are asking for payslips from April, March and May.

My contract shows that I started working 1st of May, meaning I obviously only have 1 month payslip to show. They're essentially asking for payslips from my company from before I actually started working.

However, I have an extra written letter from my company CEO showing the duration of my contract, and the amount I will be getting paid in the coming months + showing that I can indeed work remotely etc.

Any thoughts on this being sufficient... or am I screwed? 😎

Can we apply DTV visa as forex trader ? Please guide , showing 500k baht is not an issue

Hi!

Looking to apply workation DTV in Ho chi Minh.

I'm hired as a remote contractor. My company can provide Employment letter, however, I only worked there for 2 months. I have proof of requirement for 500k baht savings already.

Wondering if I'll absolutely need payslips for the last 6 months.

Note that i get paid in digital currency so im not sure how i can show salary payment in bank account. I do have tax returns for my prior employment years, though it wasnt remote.

Hello, does anyone here have any experience with the consulate in Frankfurt in relation to the point of employment? I work for a telecommunication company, however I don’t have an explicit certificate for remote work. Does anyone have any experience with if the industry you work in is closing remote is sufficient for the visa? or in general has anyone submitted a request without a remote notice?

-------------

Hallo, hat hier jemand Erfahrungen mit dem Konsulat in Frankfurt in Bezug auf den Punkt mit dem Beschäftigungsverhältnis? Ich arbeite in einem Telekommunikationsunternehmen, habe allerdings keine explizite Bescheinigung für Remote-Work. Hat jemand Erfahrung damit, wenn die Branche in der man tätig ist, auf Remote schließen lässt ausreichend ist für das Visa? oder generell schonmal jemand eine Anfrage eingereicht ohne Remote Hinweis?

Dear experts

May I ask if the third requirement is for me to write an explanatory document myself, or for the company to provide a proof?
