DTV Visa Approved in Just 4 Working Days

## Tips for a Smooth DTV Application:

1. Organize Employment Documents:

Combine the following into a single PDF file: Cover Letter

Employment Reference Lette, Payslips, Employment Contract, Resume

Add a table of contents for clarity. *(See the attached image for reference.)*

2. File Naming:

Use clear and organized file names for each document. *(Example: "Your Full Name_Document Name.pdf")*

3. Employer Business Registration:

Request this document from your employer in advance.

4. Clear Mention of Remote Work:

Ensure your employment contract or reference letter states you are a *“remote worker.”*

I’m applying my DTV application from Rabat, Morocco. After submitting all the documents for Muay Thai type, I got an email asking for 1)employement card/certificate, 2) proof of the accommodation in Thailand. I’ll also need to attend an interview at the Embassy.

I’m a full time forex trader, can anyone advise what employment document I should provide?

Hi there! I am going to be applying for the DTV in the US - NY Thai embassy. 2 questions:

1) My passport expires in 9 months. I noticed on the Thai E-visa site it says for multiple entry visa you need atleast a year. Does anyone have experience with getting approved with less than one year?

2) If I provide my work offer letter and a statement of employment (that shows salary and remote work)- will that be enough? Do they contact your employer?

Thanks so much for your help!

Hey everyone,

This question is especially for my fellow Germans who have applied for the DTV. I submitted my application today, and the embassy has requested a "Certificate of employment from the employer that allows you to work remotely (online)" (in German: "Arbeitsbescheinigung des Arbeitgebers, der es Ihnen ermöglicht, Remote (Online) zu arbeiten").

My employer does allow me to work remotely, but I've never received an official certificate confirming it. When I called my boss (we’re a small company), he didn’t even know such a document was required. For those who have been through this: what did you do? Should my employer simply write a letter stating that I (Kevin Wojtas) am allowed to work remotely and then sign it?

If anyone has dealt with a similar situation, I’d appreciate hearing what worked for you.

Thanks in advance!

Destination Thailand Visa

Hi Everyone, Im currently applying for my DTV visa and was looking for some help if anyones in a similar case to me.

1. In regards to financial evidence, am I able to provide a invesment account statement?. I use wealthsimple and have monthly statements. I Have they money but its not liquid in my regular bank account as I invest it.

2. In regards to "Employment contract or employment certificate in their country or professional portfolio showcasing digital nomad, remote worker, foreign talent or freelancer status" I currently run a bunch of youtube channels and thats my job. Is there any other youtubers in here who have filled this out?

Youtube doesnt give contracts as we are essentially freelancers and are paid through Google adsense. However, I do have sponsorship contracts with companies. If anyone can help, I will love you forever.

Thanks in advance!

I want to issue a DTV as remote employee (not a self employed).

I am trying to understand if the requirement is to show both Letter of employment ADN a work contract, or just one of them?
