Not needed in bern Switzerland. Just bank balance. I could proof income from embassy in Bangkok but they didn’t ask. Not broke yet lol

Bumrungrad Hospital for example let you search doctors for your illness and make i line appointments ( video chat) with them. You could do this and request the papers for dtv application. I knew my nephrologist already and went there in person before and have proof of needing regular kidney transplant checks. For blood tests I need to be there but medicine refills and other questions can be done by email or video consultation

I have an appointment at Bumrungrad once every few weeks and due to pre existing conditions have to see a nephrologist regularly until i die. Doctor wrote a letter which explains this a little less dramatic but this with a list for upcoming appointments was good for the embassy in bern. Was on non b before but retired early so know my doctor for years before DTV was even a thing

You need proof of money you have, not how much you made last month. And I don’t know if tik tok issues a letter that confirms you’re working for them 😱

They were helpful in going through the process with me with great patience

Keep in mind that even if your phone contract says unlimited internet doesn’t mean that they don’t reduce the speed significantly after you used a certain amount of data. If you download too much, your internet will only be good enough to do emails and texts. That’s how they don’t lie about unlimited data. Just not unlimited speed 🙏

All private hospitals I visited here so far have visa services for tourists. Just ask her doctor for assistance. Good luck

maybe it’s because I was just evacuated from my condo but I don’t understand your question
