looking for non-B visa references: if you've successfully registered a company and got a working permit with a non-B visa or know someone who has, I'd love a contact reference. TIA.

Hello everyone, I need all the information I can get. I’m planning to start a company (recruitment) and do the work from Thailand. I’m from europe and currently in Thailand. Will I be able to start a company and immediately apply for a DTV visa, or is it impossible since the company hasn’t started yet? What documents will they require?

Thank you

## DTV AFTER STUDENT VISA WHILE BEING A FREELANCE

Hello everyone!

I'm a Freelance and I've been living in Thailand since February 2022 with tourist + student visa (so definitely a LOT of stamps on my passport haha)

My last student visa ended on the 14th of December 2024. I'm back in France and plan on applying for a DTV visa to come back to BKK on the 23rd of January

My question: as I was previously on a student visa and not supposed to work in Thailand, how do I explain being a freelance and showing them my company registration/invoices for the last couple of months when applying for the DTV visa? 🫠🫠

Not sure if it's a legitimate question or if my overthinking brain is doing its magic again so I figured I'd ask!

Does anyone know what I need to send ? I've already sent a bunch of documents about company registration, proof of registration in the Payee system etc. 🙏

I was asked this as pictured, however, I don’t have a company registration so I gave them my employers company number which I had already applied.

Anyone else get this?

Does my company registration documents need to be translated to English? Obviously it won't look like the official certificate so a literal translation which is stamped by the company is ok? We are a bit confused by that one. Thanks. (Applying in Jakarta)
