Hi all. In the E-VISA website, in the "travel document" section, page 2, what did you put in "Place of Issue"? On my passport, under "authority", I have: "préfecture des Landes MONT DE MARSAN", should I put all of that or just FRANCE? I am applying for my visa at the Thai embassy in Paris. Thank you very much for any help.🙂

I will try to call the Embassy next week because I have your advice to write "Mont de Marsan" but somebody else on another groupe advice me to write only "France". So, I don't know, maybe the both are correct and maybe depending on which embassy... Wait and see

Mine said "HMPO" and that's exactly what I put, and I got approved.
