Will an incorrect expiry date from the photo of my passport affect my DTV visa application?

I applied for a DTV visa last week.

However, something is bothering me. When I uploaded a photo of my passport, the pop-up window automatically recognized the expiry date as 1935. Of course, I manually entered 2035 in the input field. Do you think this will cause any problems? Best regards

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user expressed concern regarding a misrecognized expiry date (1935 instead of 2035) from a passport photo uploaded for a DTV visa application. Commenters provided reassurance, noting that manual correction of the error is recommended due to frequent misreads by OCR technology. Many shared similar experiences and confirmed they did not encounter issues with their applications after correcting the dates.

The website forum encourages you to triple check the data and correct it. It's just for this reason because the OCR can misread.

Your presence of mind saved your application from getting cancelled. You did the right thing.

Happy Thailand Some applications were cancelled because the date read from MRZ differed from the date entered manually.
