ORIGINAL POSTER

Hello Guys…

May I ask you a question about name orientation 

My brother got DTV from Thai Embassy, Jakarta this week. 

His name in passport is something like George Ezra ( given name,surname) but in DTV, it’s mentioned as Ezra George (surname,given name).

Would that be a problem in Thailand Airport Immigration?

Thanks in advance!

TLDR : Answer Summary

The order of the name on the DTV (Digital Thailand Visa) as 'Ezra George' instead of 'George Ezra' should not cause any issues at Thailand Airport Immigration, since it is clearly labeled as (Surname, given name) on the DTV sticker.

No, because it clearly states (Surname, given name) on the DTV sticker like you said. Just a different order.
