Hi everyone 👋

I’m very interested in applying for the new Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) but I have a question about the income/work proof part.

I don’t work for Fiverr/Upwork or any well-known online platform, and I’m not employed by a company. I run my own small e-commerce business that operates in the GCC region (cash on delivery model). My income comes directly from this business, but I don’t have a formal “work contract” with an employer.

Has anyone here successfully applied for the DTV in a similar situation?

👉 What kind of documents did you submit for the “work certificate / sponsorship letter”?

👉 Do they accept a self-declaration + proof of bank transfers or sales invoices, or do they really require a company letter?

Any advice or experience would be super helpful 🙏

I'm currently in Phuket and i plan to apply in Laos

Moroccan Passport

Thanks in advance!

Hey all, hope to get some advice.

I am a software engineer and run a ecommerce business on the side for a year now. Hence after saving enough money, I want to take a break from my coding job, and work on my ecommerce business fully while im in thailand. Ive launched my first product last year but due to lousy potential, I stopped it and currently not selling anything, but I’m working on my 2nd product.

I’m looking to apply the remote working route and am concerned about providing “6 months of salary slip”. Is it okay for me to provide my coding salary slip, although implying im going to be a remote worker for ecomm?

My business is small and not enough to pay myself a salary yet but revenue was about 50k last year..

Hey everyone,

I own little ecommerces shops that brings me between €1-3k / month.

I am about to validate my demand of visa but i would like to get some potential advices and recommandations before.

I’ve redacted a full document explaining in detail my activity, you will find the table of content of this document attached.

I am a small company i don’t know anything about accounting etc i use my professionnal account as an individual one.

And lastly the only proofs i got to show my revenu is bank statement of november, october and september in which we can see that all the transactions and that the account is growing by 1.5k / 2k every period.

Do you think it will be sufficient? Do you have any tips to share?

It’s for the thai paris embassy.

Hello. I hope someone can help me because I can’t get through on the embassy phone since more then a week.

I applied for DTV in German embassy Frankfurt

Now they ask me for the following documents:

1.Current order or assignment

2. professional portfolio with representation of a digital nomad.

What do they mean with this. We have monthly around 3000 orders from customers. We sell cosmetics

What order shall I show them?

And also what do they mean with the portfolio?

I hope someone can help me.

I don’t get reply on email. And nobody answers the phone since more then a week. I’m afraid my application expires
