Hello, quick question, I am planning to submit my application for DTV in Hanoi, for remote work.

Regarding the documents required to prove ongoing relationship with clients (contract with client, letter from client saying that you can work from thailand, etc.) do these documents need to be written in English, or can I provide original documents and letters in my native language (since my client is located in France), along with a translation made by myself ?

Thanks for any advices :)

Hi everyone! DTV work action was rejected at Hanoi Embassy.

I submitted my application on the 30.9, got 3 emails asking for further documentation.

Now, in my case I had a non B visa & work permit, all of which was cancelled, expired & company ownership transferred to someone else via the lawyer I worked with.

Provided all the needed documents (bank statement with the funds, company letter, company registration outside Thailand, proof of source of income).

Then they asked for further information about work permit & business registration in Thailand - provided that alongside the proof of transfer of ownership & cancelled work permit.

Yet, it was rejected saying “not eligible for DTV, please apply for non B visa & work permit again.” Which is not the route for me as I don’t have any company anymore in Thailand.

Anyone experienced similar challenge? Any advise?

Going to the embassy tomorrow to ask for clarification…

Thank you!

Anyone get DTV in vietnam?

How long did you wait?

Anonymous as it's a public group! I'm planning to apply for the DTV soft power in Laos. I understand that they always do interviews. I'm married to a Thai citizen. Will they, perhaps, ask why I don't get a marriage visa? If so, how would I justify this to them? (My reasons are that I can work remotely legally, it lasts 5 years, and that I want the flexibility of not always being in Thailand but still being able to return at any point. I don't think I want to live in Thailand forever though so not thinking of the PR route!)

Let me know if you have any questions.

Would like some advice / insights 🙂

DTV on brand new company?

I’ve been working for my employer in my homecountry for years.

I’m going to quit this job, start my own business (so it’s completely new) and work on projects from my current employer.

The only difference is I was salaried until now, and will be self-employed then.

My current employer can write a letter, explaining the situation and letting me work online from Thailand. Of course I can also write a letter myself / from my company.

Would you think this will be accepted for the DTV, as my company will be brand new?

Hello. I’m a U.S. citizen in Thailand trying to get my dtv visa. I was planning on going to Cambodia for this. I need the 3 months 500k baht bank statements. Do they ask for proof of income, I am an investor/trader (stocks and crypto). Any advice would be appreciated

Hello!

Me, my wife, and our three children are applying for the DTV (Digital Nomad Visa), and I have a few questions. I would be very happy if someone can help me.

1. I will work remotely. Should I apply first, and then my wife and children apply after?

2. I will start my new (remote) job when we arrive, so I don’t have payslips yet. I have all the other documents. Is this a problem? Can I use payslips from my current job instead?

3. My wife and I have a shared savings account in a Swedish bank with 850,000 Baht. We are both account holders. Is this okay, or do we need to change something?

Very thankful for answers!
