ORIGINAL POSTER

Hello everyone,

Does anyone know a good lawyer who can help me navigate my DTV Visa application or can anyone recommend the best way possible to go about getting my Visa application approved?

I’m a Belgian citizen, and I recently applied for the DTV Visa online, but unfortunately, my application was rejected without an explanation. I provided all the requested documents, yet they still denied my application.

I run a digital marketing agency registered in the U.S., which I operate alone and remotely. I provided proof that both my personal and business bank accounts hold funds exceeding the required 500,000 Thai baht. However, I have no employees and currently don’t pay myself a salary, as I rely on other income sources for my monthly expenses. I suspect this may have contributed to the rejection, or it could be due to the requirement for company registration documents verified by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, which I did not have.

If anyone can help me understand what went wrong and how to proceed, I would greatly appreciate it. I’m currently in France and plan to travel back to Thailand around March 15th.

Thank you!

Looks like you didn't reply at their additional documents that they required to youvia email, that's why they doesn't approve your visa.

Can consider to apply as freelancer from the other business that you got the income. If apply from the current company but you don’t get any money from it, it’d be the trouble. If you get dividend they will ask to see your company accounts, if you get salary then have to submit monthly payouts.
