What should I do if my e-visa application shows incorrect passport details and an extra space in my last name?

I'm at the confirm your application page and I noticed something off. The first "Passport / TD" line is the country of my passport, and the second "Passport / TD" line is my passport number. The "Number" line is blank, and I'm not sure if that's actually where it's supposed to be. I'm certain I put the number in the right field of the actual application, and every other line here is correct. Has anyone had this happen, is it normal?

And a question about my last name. In my passport it looks like there might be an extra space, so it reads "MC FARREN" instead of "MCFARREN." Maybe it's a typo but my name has only ever been written out like the latter. So I'm wondering if I should just write it as normal, same spelling of course just without the extra space?

I know this all might seem like overthinking but I've seen people get rejected/cancelled for minor things like this and I don't want that to be me 😭 Appreciate any advice, especially people who applied from Jakarta.

Turn off autocorrect before starting the application.

Errors in passport data will lead to rejection, and loss of the 10.000+ baht visafee

Has to be EXACTLY like in the machine readable field on the bottom of the picture page of the passport

Read the e-visa manual in the top right corner of the e-visa page, and the website of the Embassy you apply at.

My bio data page had my passport expiry date as 1933. Wasn’t able to change it. Sent it off and no problem.

There are bugs in the system.

Not advice just saying.

Manually edit the biodata info. Do not trust the OCR to read and fill the fields correctly, as warned about on the evisa application website. You can edit up until the time you submit. No mistakes are allowed for the biodata entry fields.
