Can I be self-employed in Thailand as a business consultant and tutor on a marital visa?

Samantha **********

@Dave ***********

Right.

And if you have a business in the UK you can run that through (change the business entity… or something) you’re good.

Where do you want this business to officially live/reside?

Here or UK?

Here? No.

UK. Yes.

If it all goes through your UK company DTV is the way.

If you want to trade here in Thailand directly, then the previous answers are correct.

For example… I own a business in UAE.

I work for that company here in Thailand.

Is that what you’re after?

You can work here FOR your UK company from here.

Is that what you mean?

DTV visa? If you already have a UK company that you could continue to run over there from here… that might be an option?

Why was my immigration experience in Thailand so complicated with a DTV Visa?

@Helen *******

Sure it says take the paper Evisa to get the DTV stamp in your passport when you’re first approved.

Nowhere does it say that you need to take that paper every time you come back in.

That was my point.

I wasn’t complaining. I was just saying it was unexpected.

It does… I just assumed that since I must have provided that to get the DTV stamp in the first place…they might have a record of it? Or trust that the first immigration officer saw it?

Ah well, no harm done.

What are the chances of getting a DTV Visa approved in Thailand, especially for a new remote worker?

Samantha **********

Don’t think that would matter.

Which embassy are you going through? That seems to make a bit of a difference unfortunately.

As long as you have the funds and your company permission you should be ok.

I got my DTV a couple of months ago.

Got my DTV stamp in my passport.

Left for 3 weeks, came back on Tuesday.

They demanded to see my Evisa print out.. even though the DTV stamp was already in my passport.

Wasn’t expecting that.

Luckily I did have it… at the very bottom of my backpack… which held up the queue for a while 🤷‍♀️
