Hello there,

I need advice regarding my visa application. I applied online from London for a non immigrant type B however I noticed an error on the expiry month of my passport. I have emailed the embassy to notify the error before I submit my hard copies on person and they start processing it. Anyone knows if it can be corrected or I need to re apply ?

Thank you In advance.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is seeking advice on correcting an error in the expiry month of their passport on a non-immigrant type B visa application submitted online from London. They have reached out to the embassy for clarification. Comments suggest that if the passport has more than six months of validity remaining, it may not be a significant issue, and they recommend checking responses via Facebook for quicker replies.

As long as it will not expire soon, no problem. If it has more than six months before it expires they won't be concerned.

Not really , it will expire in 2027 but I entered October instead of January. I just don’t know how strict they are. Thank you for your reply.

, do not worry. They do make corrections, as you are not the only one making simple meaningless mistakes like that.

honesty the London Embassy is one of the most picky, bureaucratic Thai Embassies I’ve dealt with. I’ve had my applications returned from there so many times for tiny infractions like the bank statements not bring printers out in the right way and my bank statement being 2 weeks ‘out of date’. They are a complete pita so be prepared
