Destination Thailand Visa Pattaya

Workcation (Digital Nomads, Freelancers, Remote Workers)

As mentioned before, the DTV’s target audience consists of digital nomads, freelancers, and remote workers. This means that if you work remotely for a foreign company or work for yourself as a freelancer or influencer, this visa is designed for you.

Though the Thai government has pointed out that “not just anyone” can obtain a Thailand DTV Visa as a digital nomad, they did not, as of this writing, specify the minimum income, employer, or social media follower requirements. Still, it is unlikely that you will qualify for the DTV Visa Thailand if the Thai authorities do not consider your foreign employer to be “legitimate.”

Thai Soft Power Activities

However, if you do not work online but want this visa anyway, you can still qualify for the Thailand DTV Visa if you plan to engage in “Thai Soft Power” activities. These include: 

• Muay Thai courses
• Thai cooking courses
• Sports training
• Medical treatment
• Seminars
• Music festivals

These activities enhance the prestige of Thailand’s culture and improve the country’s standing in the international community. This is why the government will let you acquire a DTV Visa Thailand to help spread the word about how great Thailand is.

Alternatively, you can also qualify for this visa if you plan to participate in so-called “Thai Soft Power” activities. You are eligible for the DTV if you plan to attend Thai boxing or cooking classes, participate in sports training, undergo medical treatments, take short-term educational courses, take part in seminars, or join artistic or musical festivals.

What are the Requirements for a Thailand DTV Visa?

Destination Thailand Visa | DTV Visa Thailand

If you are going to apply for the Thailand DTV Visa, there are just a few requirements you have to meet, but they will differ depending on your category: workcation, soft power activity, or dependent. Make sure you have these documents ready before starting your application.

1. Passport or Travel Document
2. Passport Photograph
3. Document Showing Current Location
4. Evidence of Financial Assets*
   • Amount of no less than 500,000 THB (differs by embassy)
   • Bank statements, payslips, or a sponsorship letter can act as evidence
5. Proof of Purpose of Visit:
   • Workcation: Employment contract, employment certificate from your country, or a professional portfolio showing your freelancer work
   • Thai Soft Power: Proof of confirmation to attend the activity or a letter of appointment from a hospital or medical center
   • Dependent of Primary DTV Holder: Proof of relationship, such as a marriage certificate, birth certificate, or certificate of adoption

*You must show that you have enough liquid assets to support yourself during your extended stay in Thailand. The minimum for this is 500,000 THB, but as you must apply for this visa from outside of Thailand, the embassy or consulate you apply through may demand to see a higher amount and will have their own set of criteria for how much evidence is required to demonstrate this.
