- Oct 01, 2024, 09:53 PMWhen you see "given name" (instead of first and middle name) and "last name" on any form, to be at the safe side, just input both your first and your middle in that space (given name). Only your last name or surname shouldn't be tampered with.
It's an article to learn from. Great.

I traveled 33 hours to Vietnam however was denied entry in light of a typical travel error I'll at no point ever make in the future
The author, made a travel error that nearly destroyed her travel plans.
I travel frequently, however my new trip to Vietnam was the first time I experienced a challenge entering a country.
I was denied passage on the grounds that my visa didn't have my middle name however my passport did.
I had the option to purchase an emergency visa since I had cash available.
Subsequent to enduring 33 hours making a trip from Phoenix to Dallas to Tokyo to Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam, I was tired yet excited to arrive at my destination at last.
It'd been a half year since I last visited Vietnam, and I was anticipating exploring new urban communities in the lovely country.
After deplaning, I went to the passport control region with my passport and a printout of the visa I'd applied for and been conceded around a month and a half prior.
At the point when I got to the front, I gave over my two records and anticipated the unavoidable blessing. All things being equal, the worker gave them back to me and said, "Denied."
I was so befuddled — I've gone to 46 nations and had never had issues gaining entry to any of them previously.
Subsequent to skipping around the air terminal and holding up in lines, I found a worker who might look into my documents to let me know the issue.
It turns out the two records didn't coordinate: My middle name was on my passport however not my visa.
I was unable to accept such a little mistake would set me back
Visa applications can be denied in the event that your name doesn't match the one on your passport, and I'd missed this error.
The worker let me know I had two options: I could fly back to Japan, where I'd recently shown up from, or pay for an "extremely, costly" emergency visa.
I knew flying back to Japan wasn't a choice, as I was setting out on a waterway cruise out of Vietnam in under 12 hours. So I picked the last option.
I let out a breathe of peace when I was told my new visa would be $130 — I'd anticipated that it should cost considerably more. However, I freaked out again when I took out my credit card and the worker let me know they acknowledged just cash.
I discovered some $20 notes pushed in my pack. After an upsetting stand by, I had my new visa and was allowed to go.
I learned 2 significant travel lessons I will always remember
I actually don't have the foggiest idea how my visa application was supported in any case — I needed to present a photograph of my passport to get it — yet I currently know to be extra cautious.
Afterward, I likewise acknowledged for what reason I'd neglected to incorporate my middle name: The electronic visa application didn't have a particular spot marked for it.
The structure says "Given name" and "Last name." It didn't occur to me to add my middle name for a similar spot as my first since I'm accustomed to seeing a different spot for it on applications.
From here onward, however, I'll have it in mind that names on a passport and visa must match impeccably, which incorporates everything regardless of whether the application request it in a manner you'd anticipate.
I'm happy I had the option to forge ahead with my journey, and I'll at no point ever travel in the future without cash close by for emergencies. Cash is as yet lord in many places, and I'm fortunate this mix-up just cost me a couple of bills and a couple of hours.
