@James *******
yes, I mean the 500k investment, not the visa fee... I will stay with dtv for now, but I will be happy to get feedback of somebody who did it.

For "Wealthy Global Citizens", some people can give me informations on what "investment" mean, if i buy 500k$ thai bond ? , if i buy 5 condo of 100k$ each ? , can i mix the 2 ways ?! (200k thai bond, 3 condo for 300 examples ?).

The main problems of this , i hear that i need to do the investment before, and apply for the visa after .. and you can still be declined the visa .. ( invest 500k to get a visa cancelled look not good .. )

@John ********

@John *****

Participant(e) anonyme ok, so you don't have a company. Do you have any registration from your country that you make business ? In my country when you are a self worker / freelance. you need to be registered, and you have a certificate/registration of that.

I think some people get the visa working for online platform, but be ready to accept it may failed.

( what I mean is if you do a "side business teacher", with no official / regular business , it may failed)
Michael *******
So if you don't have a company, or a business registration, you may failed to get dtv visa for work. ( or maybe you can get through .. note : 500k is the minimum amount, if you show them more and more it make your case stronger ( and maybe lucky that they dont check everything in details).

Most of the time they ask for a prove that your business/company is registered somewhere.
