Hello, friends! What did you use for Document indicating current location?

Thank you!

Since I have all my funds in my company accounts, I need to transfer to my personal account, and therefor are not able to present a 3 or 6 months statement…

So my option is to apply from an embassy, that accepts the current bank statement.

I am going for the digital nomad / workcation option.

💰 What embassy accepts 500K as only CURRENT balance (digital nomad, NOT soft power option)?

Anyone have experience with this? (Not the soft power option, bc they usually accept the current statement only, from what I can see).

I would prefer to apply from Asia.

Thank you all for all your amazing help and advice ☺️🙏🏼

Discussions in this forum were most helpful in obtaining worcation DTV. Much appreciated.

Submitted documents late in the evening on 15.12.2024 to London Embassy.

I am the sole proprietor/ director of my consultancy company.

Documents entered

Passport, Visa photograph from studio, Evidence of Location - utility bill.

Evidence of above 500K bhts in account over 6 months

Covering letter indicating the nature of work, reason for choosing Thailand for remote work, acknowledgement to work within the law of the land and that my clients will all be from outside of Thailand. And the documents attached.

Company registration for 2024.

Snapshot of the company information on Gov.uk website and link.

Employment certificate ( Thanks very much to Samantha Haselden from this gp for the direct advise) indicating remote work.

Tax return for 22-23.

Couple of service letters and invoices along with the payment into the bank account highlighted ( personal details of clients were redacted for confidentiality).

16.12 evening received email from the embassy asking for selfie photo ( the photo included on my DTV is the selfie I submitted on that request) and a proof of location - submitted my UK diving licence.

18.12. Visa site showed ' processing awaiting approval.

24.12 DTV approval email just after midnight.

Many thanks again especially to the original person who setup this group and allowed me to join and to all the contributions here that helped me.

Hi, I have an online vintage clothing shop on Depop which was pretty successful but it doesn’t make me that much money anymore. I have the 500,000 baht but I am wondering if there is a certain amount you need to be earning to get the Dtv?

Would I be able to apply using the shop as my portfolio?

Or is it better for me to apply though the Muay Thai/ cooking class route?

I’m worried about getting denied 🙃

Malaysia-KUL.

Applied last Monday 9 December, but still silence. Anyone waiting too?

I got my DTV yesterday - just have to have the documents ready. I did it all online. Employment letter stating you’re remote. Bank account proving you have enough funds. Company proof of existence.

Hi everyone,

I got to Vietnam (HCMC) on Monday and submitted my application around 10am and haven’t heard anything back yet- I know it’s probably too early to hear anything (I’m just nervous lol) but my plan was to leave next Thursday night to go back to Thailand and I’m just wondering if that’s enough time? I’ve seen a few people say it took longer in HCMC than they thought so when should I start worrying?😂

I hold a uk passport and I’m applying for workcation if that makes a difference!☺️

Thanks!

Posting because this group has been very helpful.

DTV success in HCMC, Vietnam. Soft Power - Muay Thai.

Applied from Danang on Nov. 27 around 11am, received the visa today, Dec. 4 around 1pm. 5 business days as advertised. Provided 6 months of bank statements, including a recent screenshot of my balance because my most recent statement only covered until Oct. 30 (all over 500k THB), relevant paperwork from the gym, proof of presence in Vietnam (photo of VN visa stamp, VN evisa, hotel booking and receipt combined into a PDF). Did not receive any requests for additional documentation. Fairly painless process.

Thanks everyone, and good luck.

I made my soft power visa application in Vietnam ( e-visa ) with Tiger Eye school . I sent the invitation letter, proof of payment, ID card of the manager, boxing school license .

Do you have any idea what I should send them?
