London embassy. Workcation. Rental Income.

Sharing in the hope that it might help others.

My situation:

Been living in Thailand just over 2 years, on Tourist visa(s) then Education visa.

Arrived back to UK on 2nd December and submitted visa application that night. Approved Sunday night, 8th December.

I have 2 rental properties in Scotland and I do a mix of renting long term and short term through Airbnb etc. I am living off my rental income and some savings.

Documents submitted:

Usual required docs, passport etc

4 months bank statements

3 months of Earnings reports from Airbnb

3 booking confirmations from another agency

Landlord registration

4 years of tax accounts

Cover letter stating my situation

Cover letter from my Thai girlfriend confirming I will be living with her, and included her rental agreement

Initially I submitted all the above combined into one pdf, in a good order, with my Cover letter first. A few days later, I had a request for further documentation which I found bizarre as it was requesting docs I had already submitted. So I just broke up the pdfs and submitted them again separately as requested, my tax accounts, my Cover letter, my "professional portfolio" being Earnings reports and booking confirmations.

In my Cover letter I stated my duties, which are communicating with guests / tenants, updating my calendars and prices, taking and lodging deposits when required, Liaising with cleaners for changeovers, Liaising with maintenance people when required. Etc.

I included the Flight number of my desired flight, not booked yet.

Hope this helps.

Good luck to all those applying

I went to Danang Vietnam because I used to live there. It’s a great city with a beautiful beach and peninsula. Great restaurants and hotels, all cheap.

I applied on HCMC embassy visa online visa.

Two days after I applied they requested further documents. They asked for all the paperwork from the gym. Owner passport, ID, etc. combine all the documents onto one PDF when you upload them.

Two days later it was approved.

Total time for approval was five days.

I am very happy because I love being in Thailand. It is my second home and I already train Muay Thai. It’s a massive passion of mine.

Good luck to you all. It wasn’t complicated to do at all. You definitely do not need an agent for this.

Hello all 🤗

I see that there a lot of information here, but I would like to ask please for the documents needed for a DTV visa as a digital nomad, who works at a company (I mean employee as opposed to freelancer/business owner/else).

Will a work contact agreement (translated) be enough? Or will I need any other documents?

I plan to go to Vietnam (Ho Chi Minh) in order to apply online for the visa.

Any information will help.

Thanks a lot in advance 🙏

Good luck to everyone 🤗

Hello everyone, I know this question has been asked many times before, but I’d appreciate your advice just in case anything has changed. I’m about to reach 2 months here in Chiang Mai, and I’m looking to extend my visa (I’m on a visa exemption/Colombian, which expires on October 27). I’ve heard that Central Festival is a good place to get it done. I’m aware the immigration office isn’t open on weekends, so I’m planning to do this between tomorrow and Friday, early in the morning. Could you please guide me on the current process, what documents are needed, and any additional tips? Thanks a lot in advance!

UPDATE: I thought I’d try my luck collecting today, one day early. I turned up at 2.30pm to avoid any queues and they kindly allowed me in and my passport complete with DTV sticker was handed to me. Yayy!! 🙏🎉😄
