Title: Erroe on my visa application
Post by: TIGER on August 28, 2019, 10:14:50 AM: Hi just a bit of advice please. I have just bought our Turkish visa . When I booked the flights 8 months ago we were due to land in Dalaman just after 1 am on Sunday 3rd September, but our flight times changed and we now land at 22.35pm on the 2nd September . I have put the start date as the 3rd by mistake, but it will still be the 2nd when we land . All other details are correct but by the time we get off the plane and go through to passport control we will still be around an hour off the 3rd of September, could this be a problem,
thanks to anyone that has any advice.

Correct - Passport control is before baggage and I dont recall anythig else on the way except toilets!

You might be lucky and they'll just waive you through but on the other hand you might get someone having a bad day! If you don't want to take a risk would just get new visas. I always date ours from the day before we're due to land just for situations like this.
