Why was my 90-Day online application rejected and what should I choose for City/Amphur?

ORIGINAL POSTER

I had unusually had my 90-Day online application rejected so I went into Chaeng Wattana to do it in person. I was told the reason for the rejection was that I should have chosen Wattana for the City/Amphur. Today I checked the online 90-Day form and saw that Wattana it isn't one of the options in the drop down box. Since 2013 I've been using:

City/Amphur: Khlong Toei

District/Tambon: Khlong Toei

... and it has never been rejected before. Puzzled!

TLDR : Answer Summary

The user experienced a rejection of their 90-Day visa application online due to a city/amphur discrepancy. Despite using Khlong Toei for years, Wattana wasn't listed in the online dropdown. Comments suggest double-checking the exact address and considering alternatives like Vadhana, reflecting a home address that may not exactly match any of the common names listed.

OP needs to check his exact address again. This post went far away enough from visa-related matters now.

@John ********

, If you have further questions about TM30/TM47 AFTER you check your address and get the data corrected in case of necessary, please make a new post.

Thank you all.

OK my TM30 also says:

Sub-district, Sub-area: Khlong Toei

District, Area: Khlong Toei

I didn't know that Vadhana was an alternative spelling of Wattana. I'll try Vadhana and Khlong Toei Nuea on my next attempt.

Thanks so much for your response. Much appreciated.

, IF you live on the north side (odd number soi side) of Sukhumvit Rd, as you said "Sukhumvit Soi 21", your address has to be Khlong Toei Nuea, Wattana (Vadhana). Khlong Toei, Khlong Toei is on the south side of Sukhumvit Road.

Check your real address. You might need to update TM30, too.

Well... So... Where do you live? If it's Klong Toei, then it should be that. No?

21 will almost certainly be Klong Toei Nuae and then Vadhana. I used to live on 19 and had to do most things like this.

It shows up with a V not a W.

Just enter V in the field and it will appear in a drop down list. I lived in Watanna up until a year ago and have used the online form many times

You are sure using the same address as your TM30?

You may need to choose "Vadhana" if your address is so-called "Wattana".

But then your District/Tambon address must be "Khlong Toei Nuea", not just "Khlong Toei".

There are some other spelling variations on the system. Just be careful, members.

@Ellie ******

That depends on which area he lives in. When I lived in Watanna my tambon was Khlong Tan Nuea

@Brian *******

, I know there are three. I said so because he was using "Khlong Toei".
