TLDR : Answer Summary
Users are expressing frustrations regarding API server errors encountered while using the Thai Pass application website. Suggestions shared in the comments include using incognito mode, checking for spaces in the passport number, reapplying if the first submission fails, changing file uploads to specific formats like jpg, and trying different web browsers like Google Chrome.

OMG that's all? Nice

Not sure if it is still the same, but when we applied for a TP in November we got the same message and the solution was to add a "space" to our 9-digit passport number.

Maybe it is another issue that bugs your application, but it is worth giving the "10th digit" trick a try. Good luck....

wow. Youd think that by now they would specifically tell us to do that or just fix the stupid site. If they want people to come and require us to complete this application they need to make it foolproof without all these dam bugs. They have had months to improve their implementation

Ok. After a few HOURS on the damn STUPID Thai pass site I finally got it submitted. How extremely frustrating! I don't know why they can't make it more streamlined. They have enough smart IT people to make it simple. Sheesh ๐Ÿ˜

I am honestly curious what digital service you happy with in Thailand? They have a very large demand for software engineers but not enough graduates.

Application program interface. It allows different programs to interact with each other (like linking your Google account to a non-googoe website).

Jonathan *******
@Gary ********
They didnโ€™t give you a small card with the date you got your vaccine, which one and where? They give it to you after the first shot
