What to do if I provided the wrong passport number?

If you enter the wrong passport number when applying for a visa online, it's crucial to correct the mistake immediately. A passport number is a distinct ID used by immigration authorities to verify your identity, and any discrepancies can lead to delays or denial of entry. Applicants may try one of the following methods to correct the mistake:

• Contact the authority: Contact the embassy, or consulate center if you apply at the Embassy. Contact our customer support as soon as possible, state the issue, and provide the correct passport number.
• Submit a Request: You can try to submit a request to correct the mistake through the Vietnam Immigration Services portal or via email.
• Re-Apply Your Application: If a visa has already been issued with the incorrect passport number, you may be required to reapply for a new visa. This could involve additional fees and processing time, so it’s best to carefully review your details before submitting.
• Check Entry Requirements: If you notice a mistake after arriving in the destination country, approach the immigration desk and explain the situation. Be prepared to show supporting documents, such as your visa application receipt and correct passport.
