Hi Everyone!

I already applied for the DTVvisa from france as a freelancer, but they asked for additional documents.o

I send the bank statement of 500 000 baths from september, but I didn't have them all my one french account, I had for more than 3 months 9k euros on it, but the other 6k euros where on my paypal and Revolut since I was living in Korea. Has anyone been approved showing funds split? I'm not sure it would be saffer to add a sponsor or not in this case.

Also my income is from the Platform Patreon, i'm not sure what they want me to add in the portfolio (i've send previously my analytics and following audience, the income, and the proof that the payment goes to my Paypal), They are asking for more but without much precision.

Thank you a lot for any advice ☺️

I got rejected for the DTV visa at Mumbai consulate, India 😞 👇

Actually I didn't completely get rejected but received a 'tourist tr' visa. Basically a normal visa of 60 days but valid for 6 months. That's a rejection in my eyes.

Now I am just trying to figure out what could be the reason for my rejection? Should I call them and insist on sharing the reason? If anybody here can review my documents in DM and let me know your expert opinion, that would be really helpful!

I applied through the workcation route as a freelancer. Submitted bank statement for 6 months with 500k for 3 months, ITR, Contracts, Clients' business registrations, employment certificate, payment transaction history, basically everything they needed to approve.

From other's experience too, the mumbai consulate seems to be conservative and very conservative. They prolly don't trust the status of 'freelancer' for a DTV visa. They must be looking for the traditional job employed people. They even requested additional documents. I still can't think of a solid reason that they rejected me. Such a bummer, waste of time and money.

Now if there is anybody that can help review my documents pls let me know, so I don't get rejected again. Also which country/ embassy is the best to apply from in my case. Thank you 🙏

Has anyone gotten a DTV but has mysterious sources of income. I make approx $10000 a month but don’t have a company- I stream on twitch from time to time and have subs on patreon. ( no nudity or anything at all) and have a big Twitter page with 50k where I get sent gifts under $. Or should I apply for soft power. Thanks :)

> Hi everyone!

I applied for a DTV at the Thai Embassy in Tel Aviv, and they requested:

*Please upload the original guarantee letter from the accountant of the freelancer’s company with his/her certified (English*)

The thing is, I don’t currently have an accountant since I run a small business. Can I just hire one to issue the required letter, and would that be sufficient?

Has anyone here had a similar experience?

Thank ya all!!

"Hello friends. I applied for the DTV (Digital Nomad Visa) on May 7. Today, they requested additional documents. I am an entrepreneur doing dropshipping on Amazon. What they asked for is: 'An employment contract or work document from your country, or a professional portfolio showing your status as a digital nomad, remote worker, foreign talent, or freelancer.' Which document should I submit in response to this? I would really appreciate your help..."

Hi everyone.

I’m a freelancer content creator based in Dubai.

I in the process of preparing my documents for the DTV. I got everything almost.

I made a freelancer portfolio, I wrote a cover letter describing my work and attached screenshots and links for my social media profile. Also I attached recent invoices and receipts showing that I received money from collaborating with brands and organizations.

I just want someone who has done it before to take a look at it and give more insights.
