Anonymous participant perhaps that's your route then. You can show the UK company has income, you can show that income found its way to you. If you can show the UK company was registered with the authorities and paid tax even better

The people who get refused are generally abusing the visa exempt system

It won't get transferred, just carry both passports until the DTV expires

@Paul ******

given it's now over 3 years since thailand reopened after covid it's probably a safe bet but I take your point, although I've never done the practical or theory tests in fact nothing but the reaction tests

Anonymous participant did the Thai company invoice the UK company or are they entirely separate

Having been living and working in Thailand isn't an issue but cancel your work permit and extension before you leave Thailand. Have you maintained income from your UK company while in Thailand or is this a new company? A new company doesn't rule out a Workation DTV but without history you are going to have to explain how you will get income, if you have any contracts that would definitely help

If your licence has been expired for longer than 12 months I believe you have to start over again so you will either have to take all the tests or convert from your home license and IDP. So you will only get a 2 year licence

If you are on an actual visa yes

You don't have to go in person, you can get someone to go on your behalf, you can do by post, even if its your first time. No excuse really

Anonymous participant no that's a visa exempt entry, not a visa at all
