Currently in Thailand and have DTV questions:

1. Which nearby country would be best to apply for DTV from?

2. Want to apply for workation/digital nomad DTV option. What income per month would be needed as proof of remote work/income?

3. Would income from rental property be ok? Or needs to be business income, freelancer income from clients?

4. Better to apply personally or via agency? Any suggestions of agencies?

Me and my partner want to both apply. A Chinese and an Australian.

Hi im in contact with a gym in Bangkok they suggest a 9 month program for approx 40.000 thb for my DTV application

My question for you is how short can the Muay Thai class period be ? 1 month , 3 month or ?

Thank you in advance ..

Hi all,

So, I applied for the DTV 6 days ago (German citizen). My last name has an ö in it, a letter only found in a few alphabets. It is common to either write it as “oe” or “o” on official documents. I have been getting flights by writing it with “o” for ages.

I just got an automated email saying my visa application was cancelled due to my last name having been incorrect. There was no indication on the application or embassy website on how to spell it.

I will obviously call the embassy tomorrow and if necessary the responsible office in Thailand… but I wanted to ask if anybody has had a similar experience and whether they managed to get a refund it were able to change it after the fact. My visa application just got moved to the completed tab with a “cancelled” indication. Didn’t receive anything but this automated email. Because loosing 350 Euros for writing my name correctly is not acceptable to me.

Hello, I’m in Thailand on a tourist visa and I wish to apply for a DTV. Do I must return back to my home country to be able to apply ? Can I apply whist I’m in Thailand ?

Hello, about to travel from Thailand to Vietnam to apply for my dtv.

Just a few questions. Dtv can take up to 10 days for approval?

If I’m adding my husband and son as dependants, how much time will that add? Do I get approval first for me and then begin the application to add as dependants. Or do I do this simultaneously?

Basically I’m wondering how long of a trip do I need to book, roughly.

Thank you!

I am from EU, and I plan to apply for DTV visa as a remote worker (in Hanoi or HCMC, or maybe Taipei), but I struggle with a requirement of job contract, or a contract with a client.

I have as my income is more of a "passive". I don't work for clients, I work for myself and sell my own mobile applications on Play Store & Apple Store. I get paid monthly by Google / Apple. It's kinda similar as selling a book on Amazon or living off Youtube content etc.

All I can show is a link to these stores with my apps & my name next to it. Would that be sufficient proof/document?

Or would it be better to just apply for soft power using an agent? Thank you!

I am dual citizen. One passport allows me to enter Vietnam Visa Free and the other one requires a Visa. I will be applying for DTV visa using the passport that requires Visa to enter Vietnam. Question- is there anyone in a similar situation who entered Vietnam Visa free? How did you go about with the entry stamp requirement?

Looking for soft power schools recommendations in Pattaya / Chonburi area. (Muay Thai / Massage / Medical etc.)

Successful DTV Visa with spouse - Phnom Penh Cambodia 🇰🇭 🎉

Our visas were approved.

Many others front of us were rejected and they refunded visa fees.

Tips: They mainly check 2 things. Financial and work supporting documents.

You need to convince the visa officer that you can work remotely. So, submit as many verified documents as you can.

Submit thai bank statement if possible so that they can confirm with their banks. Otherwise, they may ask for last 6 months statements.

They prefer work category instead of soft power or others.

Best of luck 🤞

Hey all, looking to speak with hopeful DTV holders. You must be a legit professional and eligible to become a digital nomad. Want to know why you want to come to temporarily live in Thailand? Is it the cost of living? Internet speed? Something else?

Reach out to me as I’ll be writing a report about this week.
