Gave old passport number while applying for UAE visit visa
I am travelling to Dubai next week from the UK. Though we have UK BRP it has less than 6 months validity so I applied for a visa for my wife.
However by mistake I have given the old passport number (the new passport has the spouse name updated ) on the visa application. Will this cause an issue during boarding/immigration. I have both passports with me
