Can I qualify for a DTV visa with a retail business and a payroll of $3500 in the USA?

Wannikea *********

Simply having a business doesn't qualify as someone for a DTV, you have to be a remote worker or freelancer, can you operate your business remotely? Provide documentation about your business draw up a contract for yourself specifically state that you can work remotely and in Thailand with no clients in Thailand.

Wannikea *********

Odd that the upset locals Thai kerfuffle about misbehaving foreigners always referenced the "visa free, free visa" visitors, but now the enforcement and requirements target the actual visa buyers.

Does an employment contract for a DTV visa need to specify 'remote' work, or is 'home based' acceptable?

Wannikea *********

Definitely needs to explicitly state remote work and ideally remote work in Thailand with no Thai business entities or individuals.

Do I need to resubmit the 500,000 THB financial documents for the DTV visa 180-day extension?

Wannikea *********

What entry scheme did you use to apply, digital nomad or soft power? Immigration will want to see updated paperwork and seasoned finances. As mentioned just do a border bounce and save yourself a lot of headaches.

Do I need to wait for an email to pay after submitting my visa application in Laos?

Wannikea *********

the guys across the road are an expensive tout scam. There is another copy tent immediately to the right (when facing the consulate) on the other side of the coffee shop just 10 meters away.

Interview request usually within a day of payment, the interview itself can be scheduled for anywhere from a few days to a week away.
