Just got a request for further documents:

* Other request documents: Please upload a copy of the business registration (in English or accompanied by an official English translation) in the case of self-employed persons/sole proprietors. The document must include the applicant’s personal details.

I have no business registration because I work as a freelancer. Previously, I attached a contract with my long-term client and screenshots from my Upwork account, as well as previous jobs completed. What can I do now?

Really confused because when applied I already supplied all the documents, and now they ask for that

Can some clarify this ?

FYI for anyone from Norway:

In one year, the Norwegian embassy will stop providing income verification letters. This article was posted on ASN:

"The Norwegian Ministry of Foreign Affairs announced the phase-out plan in response to a parliamentary inquiry. Minister Espen Barth Eide confirmed the service cut, explaining that it is not a legally mandated duty. The embassy will discontinue the letters in a year, providing time for adaptation.

Thai immigration practices have shifted, previously accepting foreign embassy letters, now requiring verification through Thai bank accounts. Thai authorities favour either a balance of 800,000 THB or monthly deposits of at least 65,000 THB. Many countries, including the UK, USA, and Australia, have already stopped offering similar services.

The Norwegian Ministry advises citizens to consult the Thai Immigration Bureau and Thai Embassy websites for accurate guidance.

The decision aligns with a broader international trend. Norwegian retirees in Thailand must prepare for direct compliance with Thai financial requirements going forward.

The recent government white paper further clarifies these consular changes. It confirms Norway's alignment with other Western countries' consular practices in Thailand. This shift signifies a new norm for the verification of income for Thai visas."

For my pending application for a 3 months non-o visa, they requested an additional bank statement. The one I uploaded first time was of my ''USD checking account'' which has no movement other than opening and one more transaction. (In Turkey a USD account is a hedge against inflation). Although the time and amount is more than enough, I suppose they found it suspicious. I will upload statements of all my accounts which will clearly show the resource of income but visa page accepts only one file. Am I doing something wrong? May be somebody had a similar experience?

if husband and wife each get approved for a separate dtv visa, is 1,000,000 baht needed in their joint account? or is 500,000 baht sufficient?

can anyone clarify if dtv dependents need income verification, and are they also allowed to do soft power?

is there a certain monthly income requirement that's needed for proof, in addition to the mandatory 500,000 thai baht, for the spouse dependent? like in reference to the required bank statements - are they seeking a certain amount?

Did anyone apply that makes more than 500,000 per month?

I can send 12 months + of stmts showing 650k baht pay each month but I always dump it all on debt and just kept balance this month for applying DTV . Do I need to wait 3 more months keeping the balance or as long as it is there this week ?

Having received my approval for the Thailand LTR Visa issuance for Wealthy Pensioner, I'd like to give some information I have learned from the process. I started the process mid-March 2025 and had to provide updates upon two requests from the Thai BOI.

Here are my thoughts on submissions:

1. Medical(Tricare): I am retired US Navy. I received a letter from the US Defense Health Agency outlining that I have Tricare Overseas that met and exceeded the $100,000 minimum coverage. Additionally, I clipped pages from the Tricare Overseas Program (TOP) Provider Manual which broke down the Inpatient, Outpatient, and Emergency Coverage Limits.

2. Medical(Civilian): I would advise providing a policy statement and the respective coverage limits.

3. Income Verification(Annuities): Obtain annuity confirmation letters outlining annual or monthly income from wherever you obtain your income. I obtained letters from the DFAS website(Navy), OPM(Government), and from Social Security. I did not include my investment dividends for my submission.

4. Bank Statements: I only provided one year's worth of monthly statements.

5. With the initial submission and with the followup requests for additional information, you have to merge all documents into one PDF relative to the respective data for that field(ie medical, income, ...). I added a business cover letter to each of these outlining them as attachments and a definition of each. I believe the initial evaluators of your data, although english speakers, may not have the comprehensive knowledge of your specific data, so it's best to succinctly clarify them in your letter.

I believe the follow on requests for data regarding my application was definitely my own doing and circumstance. If anyone submitting has a question, please do not hesitate to ask me. My response to you will only be based on my own experience and may exceed the requirements for your specific submission of data.

I wish you good fortune in your submission for the LTR Visa!

Several visas have a "cash in bank" requirement. I have cash in an Australian Super Fund. These funds have huge assets, are as safe as banks, and because I'm over 60 the funds are immediately accessible. I'd hate to have to transfer funds from this high-interest environment into a low-interest bank account just for the visa. So does it have to be in a bank, or would a Super Fund qualify?

Also, some visas want to see an income from a government pension. I get some funds from this, but the majority from my Super Fund as an allocated pension. Would they look at both incomes?

One of the requisites for the visa is info on your portfolio. If your client has a website that you do work on but his company name is a different name completely but has no website for that company, and your income, ( although no income requirements are stated its often asked for ), is paid from his company name.

How are we supposed to show proof. Do we need all his company details and registration papers. ? , and how do we show proof that his company owns the website if none of it shows his company name. Just trying to cross i,s and dot the T,s.
