Pycryptodome AES_GCM Encryption to Java Decryption

Question

I've been trying to do AES_GCM encryption in Python and decryption in Java, below is the relevant code snippet for what I'm trying to accomplish, I have also checked the question at: Pycrypto AES GCM encryption and Java decryption this is similar to my problem. I am suspecting that the IV/nonce I set for Python is incorrect, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Python Encryption Code:

from Crypto.Cipher import AES
from base64 import b64encode
someKey = 'Sixteen byte key'
cipher = AES.new(someKey, AES.MODE_GCM, nonce='0000000000000000', mac_len=16)
ciphertext, tag = cipher.encrypt_and_digest(data)
ciphertext = ciphertext + tag
print b64encode(ciphertext)

Java Decryption Code:

private static byte[] initializationVector = new byte[16];


Cipher cipher = Cipher.getInstance("AES/GCM/NoPadding"); 
 
SecretKeySpec keySpec = new SecretKeySpec(someKey, "AES"); 

GCMParameterSpec gcmParameterSpec = new GCMParameterSpec(128, initializationVector);  
     
cipher.init(Cipher.DECRYPT_MODE, keySpec, gcmParameterSpec);

byte[] bytesString = Base64.getDecoder().decode(theString);  
 
return new String(cipher.doFinal(bytesString), "UTF-8");

I am however unable to decrypt this in Java, I get the following error:

javax.crypto.AEADBadTagException: Tag mismatch!
