(CTN News) – We have some fantastic news for those who work remotely or operate as digital nomads! Through the introduction of the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV), Thailand has made it available to those who are interested in working and see the country as an alternative that allows for a flexible and prolonged stay.
It is anticipated that the Destination Thailand Visa (DTV) will be available shortly. This visa will permit repeated entrances into Thailand for a period of five years, with each stay lasting up to 180 days.
All digital nomads, freelancers, and remote workers who are looking to establish a base in Thailand would find this visa to be ideal. As an extra option, travellers have the option to extend their stay by an additional 180 days at an additional expense. Additionally, have a look at our compilation of advice on how to travel on a budget in Thailand.
All the information you need to know about the Visa for Thailand Destination
The country of Thai-land, which is well-known for its extensive cultural legacy and well-known tourist destinations, invites tourists from all over the world to experience its treasures.
Virtual nomads have the opportunity to take advantage of the Destination Thai-land Visa, which allows them to go to the Land of Smiles while still maintaining their work lives.
The DTV is great for visiting reasons such as studying Muay Thai (a kind of Thai martial arts), Thai cuisine, education and seminars, sports, and medical treatment.
It costs THB 10,000, which is approximately equivalent to HKD 2,153.
Yet, to be eligible for the DTV, candidates are required to:
- Hold a minimum age of twenty years.
- Possess a passport that is still valid.
- You must have a minimum balance of THB 500,000 (HKD 107,670) to demonstrate that you are financially stable.
- You need to provide evidence that you are employed by or run a company outside of Thai-land.
The primary advantages of digital television
When compared to other Southeast Asian nations such as Malaysia and Japan, the minimum income necessary for the DTV account is much lower. Because your spouse and children are permitted to accompany you, the visa is also suitable for families. During their stay, visitors can modify the kind of visa they are obtaining; however, once this occurs, the DTV will be declared invalid and worthless.
In addition to DTV, the visa extension program that Thailand offers is now applicable to visitors from 93 countries, which is an increase from the previous 57 nations.
Visitors are now permitted to remain in the nation for a period of sixty days, as opposed to thirty days before.
