What documents can I provide to satisfy the Thai visa requirement for pay slips when I am paid as a contractor?

I get paid similarly. I included a letter from my employer detailing I received no payslip and the amounts I was paid for the past 6 months. Those payments I highlighted on a bank statement.

What documents are required for a Canadian digital nomad applying for the DTV visa in Thailand?

Andi ***********

Anonymous participant Yeah, very useful to have the DTV now with the potential changes to visa exemption. Manilla is a very friendly, helpful embassy, I almost applied there but went with Taipei due to its' same day approval.

Andi ***********

Not all DTVers state their income. Embassies approve many applicants with no income for the Softpower option. Retirees, Students, Elite visa holders, working visa holders do not show tax payments on arrival.

Andi ***********

Yes, you do but the regulation of registration and payment is not complete yet. They will not announce showing tax payment receipts on arrival for the same reason they do not ask other visa holders to do it.

Showing tax payment via an immigration office extension is possible as that is common in other countries too. Showing it at immigration on arrival, NO.
