TLDR : Answer Summary
A UK expat is seeking advice on correcting an incorrect passport expiry date on their 60-day tourist visa for Thailand. Responses suggest contacting the UK Embassy for correction, though some believe it may not be noticed by immigration officials. It's also advised to verify the visa's validity against their travel plans.
Yes I would contact them and get them to change, but I would also be checking the valid until date on the visa, as you not coming until November. To make sure that works in with you travel plans. Good luck.
If it's wrong, it might not be a problem. Or it might be a problem. There's no real way to know if some airline agent or immigration officer will catch the discrepancy and cause an issue over it.
I'd definitely get in contact with the embassy and ask them to correct it.
The best way to get in touch with the London embassy is by Facebook messenger.
Send one message with all relevant details something like:
"Hello I received my tourist visa and my passport expiration is incorrect.
