    If there is a mistake on your visa, then you must immediately contact the visa office and carry your original passport, Aadhar card, a copy of your visa application, and the money receipt of your visa application that is issued by a visa office. They will assist you with the steps you need to take to correct the discrepancy.

    You will be denied entry or face delays at immigration if there is a discrepancy between your passport and visa details. Before you travel, ensure that both documents match accurately, or else immigration officials might deny your entry, as this could create suspicion about the validity of your travel documents.
