Why don't freelance photographers qualify for DTV in Thailand if their clients are abroad?
Tore *********
Anonymous participant id be surprised if you don’t qualify, but it can vary allot from embassy to embassy (or consulate). The usually look for contracts with clients for verification.

Otherwise the medical DTV route is very easy if you have any medical issues.
