ORIGINAL POSTER
What do you fill in at "place of issue"? Most passports or maybe all of them are using the term "authority" for the issuing authority. My German passport lists the city and the mayor as the issuing authority. I googled other passports online, and many don't even list the city name, just the issuing authority. So what did you enter here? Just the country where the passport was issued, or did you copy exactly what's listed under "Authority" in your passport?

ORIGINAL POSTER
DTV rejected due to “Applicant provides incorrect information (country/territory issuing travel document) in the visa application.”

For reference, it’s a NZ passport issued in sydney, Australia.

The label on passport for issuing authority says DIA SYD which is what I put in the application.

I have no idea what should go in there.

Any ideas anyone?
