Mistake in Online Passport Application

Mistake in Online Passport Application - Woman Writing on a Notebook Beside Teacup and Tablet Computer

I'm applying for a new British passport and have submitted and payed on the online application but haven't yet send the declaration form.

I noticed my mobile phone number I supplied is missing the first unit. What is the correct procedure to resolve this mistake?



Best Answer

It's an honest mistake they likely encounter daily so you should have no issues ringing/emailing to explain it.

If it's just a leading zero it may not even be an issue?

Regardless, I don't see much opportunity to mitigate the possibility of extra fees paid if they decide to make you resubmit.

The earlier you contact them the less likely it is that any processing will have occurred - no promises, but this may work out in your favour ...
