Yes, you have to use the other option. Also, disregard that it says “Manila”. Since technically Thailand has not diplomatic relations with Taiwan, the office in Taipei is technically not a consulate/embassy. It is working under the purview of the Thai embassy in Manila
Maybe. How long you been part of this group? You can go back a search at least 10+ people highlighting this happened to them. How did you apply for your visa?
I see both sides. You state that “you should enter data correct” implying that it all these cases they entered incorrectly. However, there are many stories where applicants enter their details, check it multiple times to ensure it is correct. However, when you upload your passport photo page, the website replaces what you wrote (and checked) with what it thinks your passport photo page says. There are cases where the webpage software interprets letters and numbers incorrectly, maybe replacing the letter O with a zero 0, etc. Yes, maybe the applicant should recheck again, but maybe website also needs better software too, or not to overwrite what the applicant filled out
Yes, I know all of that, but on the application it asks you when you believe you will enter and when you believe you will exit. Like you said, you either have to exit before 180 days or 360 days, if you get an extension. That would count as your next exit and is what you write on your application. You wouldn’t stay in Thailand for a full 5 years, so wouldn’t put a date five years later as your exit date.
You have to be very careful with the e-visa system. When scanning your bio page, there have been cases where in interprets a zero instead of the letter O and vice versa. This can lead to rejection and loss of fee. Same with capital I (I) and lowercase L (l)
The embassy in Phnom Penh announced on the 21st that visa processing time would increase to 10 business days, not including the day of submission. Since you submitted on the 23rd, your estimated decision date would be Nov 6th.
