I just noticed immigration only gave me 43 days on my visa exempt. What problems will this cause if any ? The stamped date is correct but the written date for departure is not.

TLDR : Answer Summary
The user is concerned about being granted only 43 days on their visa exempt due to a discrepancy between the stamped date and the written departure date. Comments suggest that the correct calculation should result in 44 days, and the issue seems to stem from a possible clerical error in handwriting. Users advise checking with local immigration if there are concerns about the date.

If you are ever concerned about the date that is stamped in your passport being wrong, just drop in the local immigration office and ask.

It’s your passport, and your responsibility to make sure the date is correct.

.

You should have gotten a stamp dated 44 days from the date you stamp in (the day you stamp in (no matter what time) is day one..

It's simply an unclosed "8", far from a "6".

44 days from the 5th of march is April 18th just like that stamp says :P

The 8 is written squirrelly though ;) but it's definitely an 8 not a 6
