What should I do if my Thai visa application was canceled due to a 'wrong date of issue'?

Aug 14, 2025

Hi, my application got cancelled today with the reason “wrong date of issue” I’m assuming they meant the date of issue on my passport, which I checked 10 times over. I can’t even look at my original application as it is “finished” now. Is there anything I can do, or do I just have to reapply ? Same embassy or different one ? TIA

Nothing you can do now, except start over. Are you American? Did you use the correct ordering for dates, not month, day, year?

DTV_BegPecker good shout. Do you think it makes a difference if I apply through the same embassy or go through a different one ?

Your visa wasn't canceled, I think your visa application was canceled. If you say your visa was canceled it sounds like, after granted, it was canceled, what reportedly has also happened.

The only way is to apply and pay again.
