Any help appreciated. Just had a request for additional information from the Australian Thai Embassy.
I'm unsure what I need to provide for the "business registration of my company", as it isn't my company, I work for the Company and have provided my statement of employment. Also stated that I an employee and remote worker.
"Other request documents: Please provide a business registration of your company."
Hi. I'd like to apply for a DTV visa in Poland. I have an employment contract with a new employer from September 1st. I work 100% remotely. I've spoken with my employer and they can issue me a document authorizing me to work from Thailand. Do you have any experience with this? Will the embassy approve this form of employment for two months?
Has anyone here applied for the DTV (Digital Nomad Visa) from Brussels or Paris? I’d really appreciate some insight.
I meet all the main requirements except that I don’t yet have the 500,000 THB seasoned for 6 months. My apartment sale finalizes next week, and once that’s done I’ll have well over 500,000 THB in my account. My monthly income is solid, and my parents are also willing to include a sponsorship letter with an account showing more than the required amount.
I plan to include my professional portfolio, social media presence, and music royalty income statements as proof of my ongoing work and financial stability. I also have a long-term condo lease in Bangkok (I stayed about 5 months this year on a tourist visa), which I’ll attach as supporting evidence.
👉 Questions:
* How long does it usually take to get the visa approved?
* Would you recommend applying through Brussels or Paris?
* And does anyone know if they’re getting stricter about the 6-month fund requirement?
I’m hoping to apply as soon as possible before any potential policy changes. Thanks a lot in advance for any advice or recent experiences! 🙏
For other people's reference for the DTV timeline particularly with the turnaround time for the LA Consulate for the workcation visa (remote work).
1. I applied at the LA consulate on Oct 30, 2025 in the morning. Fairly through with cover letters for each sections.
2. Got asked for more support documentation: remote work guarantee letter from company (even though I included one before), certificate of employment or contract, business license, description of business portfolio, and last year's tax return
3. Supplied the documentation on Oct 31, 2025 around 10am.
4. Got approval on same day Oct 31 around 1:30pm.
It was a super quick turnaround and glad it got approved.
I just applied today for my DTV visa. I am an offshore worker from UK. I live in Phuket Thailand but have been using the tourist visa with no problems for the past few years. After returning to Phuket from work last time I was told I cannot keep using the free visa.
I submitted today all my information, 6 months of payslips, bank account savings in showing over the required amount. My work gave me a letter to confirm I am a remote worker but put my passport I was using up until earlier this year. I still have the passport but I am concerned that they may reject based on that it is not the same as the passport I submitted. I have applied to the Thai embassy in South Africa.
Does anyone have any insight on my situation or anyway I can send an updated document to the embassy now that it is submitted?
I was in Thailand on tourist visa in August and was there two month. Now I want to apply for the DTV but the thing is I’m work as remotely freelancer will I face problem if they see that I had income during my two month of stay?
Hello! I’m 4 months away from my departure. I am experiencing so many mixed emotions, but anywho! I wanted to get some validation on my plan:
I was initially going to go the soft power route and sign up with a Muai Thai gym, but I recently opened up my own private practice so now I’m considering the DTV route. Which I’m finding is more feasible, since I won’t be paying for classes. I meet all the requirements for the DTV & wanted to ask if I should just go that route instead? I still want to do muai Thai, but I could always pay for single classes when I get there because my plan is to travel to surrounding countries & I would hate being tied to classes that prevent me from traveling. What do you guys think?
Also, for those who are business owners (I’m a licensed therapist), did you write up your own letter saying you can work out of the country? Did you show any tax information? I’m curious what documents you showed.
Thank you in advance! I hope all that makes sense.
I’m getting ready to apply under workcation in the coming weeks 🏝️🍻
Does anyone have any tips about additional things to include in the signed letter from my boss? Is a concise letter stating that I am a full time employee that is able to carry out my tasks while working remotely in Thailand sufficient or are there other key things to include? Will be applying from Sydney, with the CEO of the tech company I work for signing off on the letter.

Hi, my work contract states I work remotely from my home address which is currently in the UK but states it is remote working. Do I need to get this changed or will this suffice? Or do I also need a letter stating they are happy for my to work in Thailand. UK embassy.
