Just applied in Istanbul - fingers crossed, I will keep this upated! Before online if choosing "Turkey" it would say there is no place to apply. October 8th this changed. Just an FYI - it can all be done online now

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user has recently applied for a Thai visa online from Istanbul, noting that the process changed on October 8th, allowing for applications that previously showed no options. They are currently awaiting feedback and have received a request for additional documents, including a PDF bank statement and proof of being a CEO. They seek support from others in the community and plan to update their progress.

UPDATE - only two days and I got a request for more documents. 1. Banks statement needs to be a PDF not a screenshot (NO IDEA HERE) I sent a PDF of a bank statement. Not sure what to do, I just sent one of my other bank accounts that looks older and crappier (credit union) capital one has very pretty statements - maybe that is the issue? #2 proof you are CEO of the company. I sent a picture of my business card, has the website where I am listed and so is my picture. I guess the next move by me if this is not accepted would be to send our operating agreement? I have found business cards work really well for this in Asia. Let's see! I will keep updating.

Exact wording - Your visa application has been rejected. Wrong personal information (Name does not match the one in the passport)

Another update - I got asked for employment certfiicate, provided it - got a rejection for "name does not match passport" this is compleetely false. Any idea what to do now?
