In an effort to entice foreign nationals to work remotely while touring the nation, the Foreign Ministry is pushing the new Destination Thailand Visa (DTV).

According to Maris, “the DTV will facilitate foreigners who wish to work remotely and stay in Thailand for an extended period of time.” He mentioned that many Phuket hotels have already started offering unique packages designed specifically for digital nomads.

With a streamlined visa application process and alternatives for prolonged stays, foreign nationals applying for the DTV can have a hassle-free travel. With the option to extend for an additional 180 days, the DTV permits stays of up to 180 days per visit.

He said that the Foreign Ministry is in the process of working with five ASEAN nations to develop a cooperative tourist visa policy. This program is in line with the government’s “Six Countries, One Destination” campaign, which seeks to position Thailand as a major center for tourism in the area and encourages more people to travel there.
