I showed over MMK 71,000,000 (~520,000 THB) in my bank statement and a company letter confirming I can work remotely from Thailand from the beginning. I also shared detailed proof of my work—process, tasks, meetings—so I don’t know what they still doubt.

I get it. But my friend applied for the DTV in Vietnam a little over a month ago with around 20k THB and got approved. So I applied too—since I make about 35k THB with extras, I figured I’d qualify.

@Don ******

Yes, 25k is already higher than the average in my country. It feels like my savings don’t count if they only look at that salary—what a life.

I work for a Burmese company with a salary of 25,000 THB plus extras, which is higher than what many other companies offered in my country. I previously ran a small Facebook online shop with my partner that earned about 60,000–80,000 THB per month, and before that I had a Singapore remote role paying over 60,000 THB per month. I usually saved in USD cash. Three months ago, to show funds for the DTV, I exchanged my USD savings into my bank account. In my initial submission, I highlighted my prior salary deposits and personal savings, including the USD exchange. I did not include the online shop at first because I don't have a business registration for that and I partially stopped it when I started my current job. When they asked the final request, I provided proof of the shop’s income and info as well, but the application was still rejected. Please advise me.
