What should I do if my Thai DTV application was cancelled instead of rejected?

DTV application visa cancellation application rejection expat visa Thailand visa process embassy application process

ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi everyone,

I just received an email that my DTV application was marked as cancelled rather than rejected, after sitting in “pending approval” for six days. Great...

I have a slight suspicion that something might have gone wrong in my initial application, maybe some information wasn’t filled out correctly from my side.

Has anyone here experienced a cancellation (as opposed to a rejection)? 

If so, what happened next and what steps did you take? Did you reapply right away, or take another route?

I’m currently considering just reapplying through the same embassy, but I’d really appreciate hearing from others who went through something similar.

Thanks a lot in advance!

sometimes when the data from your passport Bio Data Page loads automatically it misspells things like names when you have special characters in it

I got mine cancelled, but they detailed I put the wrong issue date in my passport. I applied the following day to the same embassy and got approved about 10 working days after

Cancellation usually means a piece of your personal information (name, dates, etc) was entered into the application incorrectly or you left their jurisdiction.

My friends application was cancelled because his passport issuing date scanned incorrectly. He hadn’t ensured his data was correct. No question just cancelled.

Cancelled normally implies that there is something wrong with your personal information
