How can I add an annex without page number to table of contents?

Question

I am trying to add an Annex to my thesis. I've written it in document class, report.

I don't want it show the page number of Annex in the table of contents.

So far I've tried using \pagestyle{empty}.

But it didn't work.

%===========
%Bibliography
%===========
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{\large References}
\thispagestyle{empty}
\bibliography{lsra,biblo,ls1,lsra2}
\bibliographystyle{apalike}
\pagebreak
\newpage
\thispagestyle{empty}
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{\large Annex}
\newlength{\originalVOffset}
\newlength{\originalHOffset}
\setlength{\originalVOffset}{\voffset}

\setlength{\originalHOffset}{\hoffset}
\setlength{\voffset}{0cm}
\setlength{\hoffset}{0cm}
\includepdf[pages=-]{ap1.pdf}
\includepdf[pages=-]{ap2.pdf}
\includepdf[pages=-]{ap3.pdf}
\includepdf[pages=-]{ap4.pdf}
\includepdf[pages=-]{ap5.pdf}
\includepdf[pages=-]{ap6.pdf}
\includepdf[pages=-]{ap7.pdf}
\includepdf[pages=-]{ap8.pdf}
\includepdf[pages=-]{ap9.pdf}
\includepdf[pages=-]{ap10.pdf}
\setlength{\voffset}{\originalVOffset}
\setlength{\hoffset}{\originalHOffset}
\pagebreak

I do not want that page no 30 on the right of Annex.

What should I do? Any suggestions?

Edit:: Here's my preamble>> https://pastebin.com/fYtRFxeN

Here's a minimal working example.

\documentclass{report}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\begin{document}
    \tableofcontents
\chapter{foo}
\lipsum[1-2]
\pagebreak

\chapter*{bar}
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{Bar}
\lipsum[1-5]
\pagebreak
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{Annex}
\thispagestyle{empty}
\lipsum[1-3]
\pagebreak

\end{document}

Please make a self-contained question (see Minimal Working Example). External links can break, and that would make your question useless for this site in the future. Thank you. — Miyase, Aug 04 '22 at 11:10

Found the solution to this problem on the tocloft's documentation itself.

\documentclass{report}
\usepackage{tocloft}
\usepackage{lipsum}
\begin{document}
    \tableofcontents
\chapter{foo}
\lipsum[1-2]
\pagebreak

\chapter*{bar}
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{Bar}
\lipsum[1-5]

\clearpage

\addtocontents{toc}{\cftpagenumbersoff{chapter}}
\addcontentsline{toc}{chapter}{Annex}
\chapter*{Annex}
\lipsum[1-3]
\pagebreak

\end{document}

This is a suboptimal solution because for anything after your annex, page numbers will not appear. A better approach is using \cftaddtitleline{<ext>}{<kind>}{<text>}{<page>}, which I found in this answer. – Celdor Aug 04 '22 at 14:26

This answer provides a good solution, that is one can use the macro \cftaddtitleline{<ext>}{<kind>}{<text>}{<page>} from tocloft, e.g.

\cftaddtitleline{toc}{chapter}{Annex}{}
\chapter*{Annex}

The MWE

\documentclass{report}
\usepackage{tocloft}
\usepackage{kantlipsum}
\title{The title}
\author{First Second}
\begin{document}
\maketitle
\clearpage
\cftaddtitleline{toc}{chapter}{Annex}{}
\chapter*{Annex}
\kant[5]
\clearpage
\tableofcontents
\chapter{First}
\kant[1]
\chapter{Second}
\kant[2]
\end{document}
