I had an approved DTV visa, which I applied for in Ho Chi Minh City. However, when I entered Thailand, immigration noticed that my DTV had a typo in the passport number, it didn’t match the number on my actual passport.

As a result, I was granted a tourist visa on arrival. The immigration officers at the airport were unsure how to resolve the issue.

Earlier today, I emailed the Thai embassy that issued the visa, and I’ve also scheduled an appointment with the Thai embassy in Bangkok later this week. I’m looking for any advice or information on how best to proceed.

My apologies, my previous post wasn’t clear. It’s been a hectic day. Thanks for the advice.

Hello,

I recently received my ‘proof of residence’ certificate in the mail from immigration and it was rejected by the authorities as my passport number had an extra digit on the certificate letter (Chiengwattana immigration error as my application form was correct).

Do I simply take the certificate back to immigration and ask them to amend it or do I need to start the whole application process from the beginning again?

Thanks 🙏
