I applied for DTV and got this in response. Do you know what "issued within 1 week from Bank" means? I have a statement issued Dec 1, for November, but they don't issue a statement randomly in the middle of the month. Do you think that will be okay?

Do you have any other suggestions on what to include in this upload to increase chances of approval? I intend to include both an employment certificate as well as my Github to show my extensive experience as a software engineer.

Thanks for all the help :)

We're flying to Thailand on the 24th . Just with the one way ticket . We plan on getting dtv in Cambodia . We know immigration will have an issue with not seeing an exit ticket .

Would a reservation to a Cambodia hotel suffice . Traveling by land from Thailand to Cambodia .

TIA

I'm applying for a dependant dtv for my kids in Taipei using a physical form. As my children are only 5 and 10, do they need to sign the application form or will my signature be enough. Thank you

DTV Visa Approved in Just 4 Working Days

I recently helped my friend successfully apply for a Digital Thailand Visa (DTV). As an immigration case worker, I have experience in this field, but I found the DTV process straightforward enough for anyone to handle with the right preparation.

APPLICATION TIMELINE:

• Submission Date: Dec 10, 12:03 AM

• Request for Additional Documents: Dec 12, 11:48 AM

• Approval Received: Dec 13, 6:48 PM

Processing Time: 4 working days

Submission Route: Workcation

Issue Place: Royal Thai Embassy, Hanoi

Application Method: Thai eVisa Portal ([members only]/)

APPLICANT’S BACKGROUND:

• Employment: Remote worker since July 2022

• Immigration history: Applicant has traveled to Thailand and stayed multiple times using the 60-day visa exemption. He has also extended a tourist visa while inside Thailand. I initially thought about addressing this point to the visa officer but ultimately decided to ignore it.

DOCUMENTS SUBMITTED (DEC 10, 12:03 AM):

1. Cover Letter (Optional but Recommended): Helps visa officers understand your circumstances, reasons for applying, and facilitates faster decision-making.

2. Employment Reference Letter

3. Employment Contract

4. Payslips (Last 6 Months)

5. Bank Statements (Last 3 Months): Showed a minimum balance of 500,000 THB. (Tip: The fund doesn't need to have been in the account for months; transferring it before submission is acceptable.)

6. Passport

7. Resume

8. National ID (Proof of Current Location for Vietnamese applicants)

Note: All documents must be translated into English.

REQUEST FOR ADDITIONAL DOCUMENTS (DEC 12, 11:48 AM):

After submission, we received a request for the following:

1. Employment Contract, Certificate, or Professional Portfolio: Must showcase status as a digital nomad, remote worker, freelancer, or foreign talent.

2. Company's Business Registration

***Important Note for Remote Workers:

• Ensure your employer’s business registration document is ready for submission in case it's requested.

• Your employment reference letter must explicitly state that you are a “remote worker.”

APPROVAL RECEIVED (DEC 13, 6:48 PM):

After submitting the additional documents, the visa was approved in just 18 hours.

TIPS FOR A SMOOTH DTV APPLICATION:

1. Organize Employment Documents:

- Combine the following into a single PDF file: Cover Letter, Employment Reference Lette, Payslips, Employment Contract, Resume

- Add a table of contents for clarity. (See the attached image for reference.)

2. File Naming:

Use clear and organized file names for each document. (Example: "Your Full Name_Document Name.pdf")

3. Employer Business Registration:

Request this document from your employer in advance.

4. Clear Mention of Remote Work:

Ensure your employment contract or reference letter states you are a “remote worker.”

Hey guys, can you help listing out the details of what I have to specify my employer to put on Certificate of Employment? And would it be possible if my employer do e-Signature and I later print it out?

I’m planning to apply DTV in Taipei or Jakarta, digital nomad group.

Thank you!

I’m a yoga online teacher and work for my own, didn’t work for any company. How should I select my working status in DTV website: unemployed or freelance?I apply under soft power Muay Thai course

Hello all, I’m applying on Monday in the UK for DTV! I am self employed and do content creation for companies (called UGC) and also social media. I have contracts for companies I work with and will be submitting my cover letter and my NI number. For the portfolio itself as they are all videos do you know how I can submit a video on pdf? Or if I even need to? I’m unsure how else I can prove the work that I do - any help would be appreciated 🙏🏼

Can someone tell me the normal turn aound time for the DTV application in Australia?

I am applying for a DTV in Taipei, I am currently living in Thailand. On their application form for permanent address do I put my Thailand address? I haven't lived in my home country (Australia) for a very long time so I don't have an address there

For those of you who have been asked to show all the pages of your passport for the DTV at HCMC or Hanoi, is this because you have ticket yes for “have you applied for a visa in Thailand before” and “have you visited Thailand before”?

Second part of this is have any of you applied via the workcation route and been on ED visas prior to this when sending this to the embassy, for example ED visa ending/cancelled and then going that route?

Wondering if that’s an issue.

Thanks in advance and I’m sure I’m asking on behalf of many in this group.
