Eligibility in full
A 5 year multiple entry visa for remote workers, freelancers and people doing Thai soft power activities (Muay Thai, Thai cooking, medical treatment), plus their spouse and children under 20. Each entry allows 180 days, extendable once at a Thai immigration office for up to 180 more days. You must show bank statements with at least 500,000 THB (the London embassy quotes 12,000 GBP), an employment contract or client work for a non Thai company, and a police clearance certificate issued within 6 months of your submission. Since 31 August 2026 you apply through the official e-Visa portal from the country where you are a national or a permanent resident, never from inside Thailand. The base fee is 10,000 THB, converted by each post (300 GBP in London). The DTV does not allow work for a Thai employer.
