What could have caused my visa application rejection at the Thai embassy in Jakarta?

1 September i applied, then 10 September got request for additional documents(visa in Indonesia, and proof of stay in Indonesia), then I got a pending approval status today(11 Sept), but just two hours later, it changed to “Rejected.” What could be the issue? I had 500k in my account for three months, and I also have a remote job with a contract, so my finances are stable. They didn’t specify the reason for the rejection, no explanation was provided. This was at the Jakarta embassy.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user applied for a Thai visa on September 1st and received a request for additional documents on September 10th. They provided proof of funds and employment but soon after received a rejection notice without explanation. Comments suggest possible causes such as paperwork errors, lack of clarity on document submission, or inconsistencies in the application process at different embassies.

FWIW, I saw some folks getting 6 months METV (multiple entries transit visa) instead of DTV for less than 1 year Muay Thai classes.

Okay... Interesting. 🤔 Definitely not the main reason for rejection.

If you had done proper research and read the Thai Embassy website thoroughly, you would know, that they will not give reasons for rejection.

So few, that it is not to be reckoned with.
