Destination Thailand Visa (DTV): workcation
Active
Evidence and datesThailand’s DTV has a workcation category for remote workers and freelancers, with separate family documentation. The Washington DC embassy lists five-year visa validity; that is not permission for an uninterrupted five-year stay or unrestricted Thai employment.
Evidence and datesOnly source-checked fields are shown as facts. “Not verified” means we have not established that field from current evidence; it does not mean zero, no, or ineligible.
Requirements and important conditions
Prepare passport/photo, current-location evidence, three months of qualifying bank statements, employment or professional-portfolio evidence, residence-status evidence and the current criminal-record clearance. Family applications need the principal holder’s DTV and relationship evidence. Non-US citizens and minors have additional checklists. Confirm passport validity and certification with the responsible Thai mission.
Evidence and datesThis guide covers Washington’s workcation and family checklist, including the new criminal-record requirement. Soft-power and medical-treatment applications are different purposes. Verify the permitted duration on each entry and the Immigration Bureau extension instructions; visa validity is not the stamped admission period. Employer, tax and local-work questions remain separate.
