Hi, we own a small company in NZ and now hire a management company to take care of the day to day running of the business, we get regular reports and become involved if there are any large financial decisions to be made etc or problems.

We get a weekly payment and meet all the financial requirements. Has anyone else applied in a similar situation and would it be a free lancer or a remote employee? Heading to Laos on the way to Thailand later this year so will apply there

Thanks for any advice.

Hi everyone,

I would like to apply for the DTV as a freelancer. I work in dropshipping with a friend, and we operate one online store together. We share the income generated from that website.

My friend has already used this same website as proof of income for his DTV application. Would I be able to use the same source of income for my application as well, or is it likely to be rejected?

Thank you in advance for your advice.

Hi��Question DTV Visa (work cation)��I’m thinking to apply for Worcation DTV Visa.

I have more than 30.000+ euro’s (100.000 THB) in savings and more in investment accounts. ��I do not have any recurring income yet though. My investment portfolio + savings is enough to support myself for foreseeable future. ��I’m starting a business, I have a website, store, social media accounts etc. ��Will this be enough or will they require to see income?

Under requirements should be enough but I also read a lot of posts where they asked freelancers for 3-6 months of income etc��Under requirements:

1. Biodata page of Passport or Travel Document

2. Photograph taken within the last six months

3. Document indicating current location (e.g., valid visa, receipt(s)/proof(s) of payment of airline tickets or accommodation, etc.)

4. Financial evidence: an amount of no less than 500,000 THB, (e.g., bank statements for the last three months, sponsor letter)

5 Employment contract or employment certificate in their country or professional portfolio showcasing digital nomad, remote worker, foreign talent or freelancer status

hi all. question: i'm an individual freelancer applying for workcation category. i got an email asking for company registration; which i currently don't have. i already gave them my freelance contract with 2 companies already. do you think a cover letter explaining my professional situation would help? thanks in advance.

Hi everyone, seems like the application process leaves a category of online worker in between categories...: I own online stores in different platforms as a sole proprietor, not a business. I therefore cannot really apply as a business owner, but applying under freelance doesn't really feel right either. (My payouts come from marketplaces like Etsy, not clients). I do pay taxes in my own country and it's all legit, just doesn't fit in either categories of application. Has anyone found themselves in the same spot, and found a way? Feedbacks much appreciated.

Hi guys, I need some advice regarding the DTV visa 🙏

I work as a freelancer (service-based work). My contracts are not tied to any specific location — it doesn’t matter where I perform the work.

The consulate has now requested confirmation from 3 of my clients — basically supporting letters stating that they are okay with me working remotely.

My questions are:

1️⃣ Is it enough to prove that I am a freelancer by providing contracts, invoices, and a description of my activity?

2️⃣ Or are client letters actually mandatory?

3️⃣ If letters are required — what format is usually accepted?

• free-form letter?

• company letterhead?

• signature / stamp required?

I’d really appreciate any real-life experience 🙌

Especially from those who applied for DTV as freelancers.

Hello :) Please help :)

I’d like to ask for some advice.

I’m going to apply in Poland, and I have a sole proprietorship (one-person business). I’d like to ask which option I should choose — “business owner” or “freelancer”?

Also, what documents might be required from me?

I have already prepared the confirmation of my business registration, but what other documents should I submit?

Thank you very much for your help.

I just wanted to share my experience for applying for the DTV visa as a freelancer …. I applied in Da Nang (Vietnam) last Monday , 2 days later I was asked for additional documents (high lighted freelancer income on bank statements/entry stamp to Vietnam/Company registration for the agency i currently have a contract with).

I supplied everything that was asked for and just had it it approved today, so that’s 7 days in totall including the weekend. I used chat GTP to support my application , which was really efficient and made my application clear and structured. The prep was the hardest part … all in all a smooth process. Good luck to everyone else applying 🙏

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 ☺️
