Will a Mistake in My Middle Name on the Appointment Confirmation Impact My Visa Application at the Thai Embassy?

Non-Immigrant Visa Thai Embassy Name Discrepancy

March 3, 2020

5 years ago

ORIGINAL POSTER

Hi there! So I booked an appointment online at the Thai embassy to get my non immigrant visa. My middle name in my passport is "Jean Baptiste" and I'm pretty sure this is what I typed when I signed up to the online service. 

I've just received mail confirming my appointment date and my middle name is written "Jeanbaptiste" without the space. This has been stressing me all day 😂 . 

Has anyone encountered the same issue from this website? And will this mean trouble on the day? 

Any feedback/solution is appreciated! 

Thanks!

The appointment is just to get a time and date to visit and control the crowd.

You hand over a copy of your passport and your passport and those have the correct names.
