Looking for advice – change of travel date after DTV e-visa submission (London)

Hi all,

I submitted my DTV e-visa application to the Royal Thai Embassy in London on 27 October. The portal still shows *Processing – Pending Document Check*. On my application I put an intended arrival of 1 December, but my plans have changed and I’m now considering travelling on 11 November.

I’m worried my case might be low priority because the original arrival date was a month away, and I’m unsure how best to notify the embassy so the visa arrives in time.

Questions for anyone who’s done this recently:

* Have you changed your travel date after submitting—did it cause any issues or delays?

* Did you email the London e-visa team? If so, which email address worked and what subject line did you use?

* Did you attach your updated flight itinerary or re-upload it on the portal?

* After emailing, how long did it take for them to respond or update the status?

* Any tips on wording so it’s seen as informational (not asking them to amend core details) and possibly helps prioritise due to earlier travel?

For context: I’m not trying to create a duplicate application—just inform them of the new intended travel date and check if they need anything from me.

Thanks in advance for any experiences, email contacts, or practical tips!
