Your visa application has been rejected. Wrong personal info: Country of Passport and Nationality do not match

I have a French passport and renewed my passport in my french embassy in Mauritius

What's wrong ? They just want to take my money : I paid 300 EUROS

But what a shame !! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Answer summary
A user reports their Thai visa application was rejected because the country of passport and nationality did not match. They have a French passport issued by the French Embassy in Mauritius. Community members advise that the application fields were likely mixed up, emphasizing that both the country of passport and nationality should be France. They suggest reapplying and caution against mistakes in form filling that can lead to rejection and additional costs.

I'm wondering if you could appeal their decision? It seems to me like a box ticking exercise, no thought into it.

it is not possible to appeal, and there is nothing to appeal because they did not make a wrong decision.

The fields „Country of Passport“ and „Nationality“ are predefined for selecting the countries. This should be both selected „France“ in your case. Only „Place of issue“ has no predefined field. There comes „Embassy of Mauritius“. Maybe you made a mistake and choosed „Mauritius“ as „Country of Passport“. 🤔

Country of passport: France

Nationality: France

Place of issue: French Embassy Mauritius (or whatever it says on your passport)

Sounds like you got the fields mixed up

An embassy is another countries territory, so "French embassy in Mauritius" is simply France. It's really that simple.

no it is not, French embassy in Mauritius is just French embassy in Mauritius and not France. The Vienna convention describes this. Mauritius has no right to enter the embassy without permission, not even police in case of suspected crimes, but it still is Mauritius and not France.

I've always done my visas like this and I've never had any problems.

They are so strict and ridiculous!

It is not the Embassy that are ridiculous, you have made a mistake in the part of the application, that most Embassies very explicit write on their website, that you have to make sure the information is 100 % right, since it can not be corrected later, neither by you or the Embassy staff.

Ce qui cloche c’est la connerie que tu as faite ton passeport a été émis par la France, en l’occurrence le consulat de France à Maurice. Maurice en tant que pays n’a rien à voir dans ton histoire. Désolé mais oui tu as fait une boulette à 300€, tu recommences et tu payes à nouveau.

I am french too, abroad for 15 years, don’t get confused “country of issuance” is not the physical location but the country from which your passport was issued (your nationality)

I found interesting that if I well remember, the e-visa system to apply for tourist visa won’t let you go through if you make this mistake but not the DTV for which they will get $$ and can reject without any further explanation or assistance

All visa’s can be rejected, and the visa fee is of course non-refundable, since the Embassy has used time to proces the application.

some rare cases can be different. I have a friend who is Syrian nationality but he’s a refugee and can’t get a passport from Syria. So, France is delivering the passport but nationality is “Syrian”
