The visa issued does not say "workation" on it so they must take people at their word that it is

TBF even the Embassy in London may not fully understand what zero hours contract means

As you say if the financials are good it should be fine

Give them what they requested it's the only way

You may want to highlight key parts of the documents to help them

You can change to DTV yes. I just did similar. I Let my retirement run out and applied for DTV on remote work. No issues, very easy

If they thought it through they would have created an app or at least the account could store your key details so you only have to enter the flight details.

Cambodia has an app for this and it works very well

Well done for persevering

why would mentioning being allowed to be based in Thailand be an issue?

I'm coming out of retirement. Hence the major reason to change

@John *********

fair enough but retirement with multiple entry stamp over 5 years is still more expensive than DTV and no need to visit immigration ever if you travel as I do

@John *********

to say you save nothing over 5 years with the annual cost of renewal and the multi entry permit is of course incorrect.

I personally travel every couple of months outside of Thailand and historically had to plan to be inside Thailand to renew. The DTV allows me to do as I wish for 5 years without ever having to visit immigration, which again is another cost in both time and expenses. So for me the DTV has many benefits over the retirement visa
