Hey guys, I’m applying through London embassy online. Just got the email for further documents, I wanted a bit of advice on this so I make sure I get it right-

So firstly they basically want a cover letter explaining my freelance work & making sure it doesn’t infringe on local laws regarding working in Thailand

&

Secondly, I run an online store selling clothes from the uk, so should I write a description of that and link my social pages & website to them?

Any help or advice would be great.

Thank you!

(For ppl who are applying from uk, for ref I applied on the 5th and received this email on the 8th)

DTV APPROVED!

I applied through e-visa in Indonesia on 02/01 03:00 after I landed. Approved on Monday 06/01 13:00.

I applied as a freelance writer. Provided them with official business registration from my home country, 2 letters from employers stating I have worked for them and will continue to do so remotely. Also gave them screenshots of my website, social media, resume, and examples of my work.

Current address: An exit stamp of Thailand, entry stamp + visa for Indonesia, hotel booking.

I also gave them 3 months statement of my savings account and my 2022 invoices overview, and a signed contract for some work I'm doing right now.

PS: Jakarta is the worst city I have ever been to in my life (I am well traveled person). I got robbed by three men on a motorbike and got sick due to air pollution. The food is very bad and the city smells and is unhygienic. 2 other people in my hotel got their phones stolen as well. So I run away to Bali after 2 days.

Good luck with your application and thank you all for sharing your tips and tricks.

After approval of the DTV, over the 5 year duration of the visa, am I required to provide proof of employment/financial statements to show proof of income? Or is that a one-time deal?

I'm a US citizen. Applied through Washington office under freelance category.

I have just been asked to supply proof of paid invoices from clients as a contract freelancer (which were within the 6 month bank statement I provided) Having now submitted them I am wondering what the turn around time is for the visa to be accepted? I submitted initial application Tuesday 11am and receive this request at 4pm today. Thanks in advance for any feedback!

Hi all ! Just wanted to share back my experience about my DTV application (and a successful one 🥳) in case it can help someone here.

I am french, sole owner of my company, I applied for workcation as freelancer, at the embassy of Hanoi, Vietnam.

Applied as soon as I passed immigration at Hanoi's airport, added my passport stamp with the booking of my hotel to the website, everything else was already uploaded and saved, validated, and payed arround 3pm Monday 28th of October.

I believe the next morning (tuesday 29/10), the website was showing "Pending approuval" and it was the case until Tuesday the week after, when it got approuved at 9:50am (05/11) 🥳. It took 7 working days counting the day I applied and the day I received it.

No extra document were requested, it was simple, but a bit stressful to wait, and check the website regurlarly.

I saw someone give that advice on this goup, and I have to agree and give the same one. Save yourself some stress, and book yourself a week even though you could have it in less 😊

Documents I gave :

- Passport + identity picture

- Stamp of entry in Vietnam + booking of my hotel

- Document signed by my bank confirming in english that I had more than 500 000 THB on one of my banking account + a monthly from 2 months ago of that banking account

- A PDF document with on the first page a summary of the documents inside the pdf, which were :

- Letter to explain nature of sole proprietorship business, with links to my website, YouTube channel, Instagram, and LinkedIn profile

- English translation of my website (screenshots translated on Deepl)

- 1 invoice in french and english

- Document of ownership of sole proprietorship business in french and english

- Tax certificate of 2023 of my company in french and english

- August 2023 Turnover in french and english

Hope it can help someone :)

Los Angeles Consulate - I've been a freelancer/remote worker for 3 years but I now only have one main long-term client I've been with since February 2023 (almost 2 years, we renew our contract every year as I usually increase my retainer rates). Has anyone had similar experience and/or will this timeframe impact my application in anyway?
