Report an error with your eVisa

You should report an error if:

  • your eVisa details are wrong - for example it’s showing the wrong date of birth or immigration status
  • you can view your eVisa but you cannot use it to get a share code
  • you cannot view your eVisa because of a technical error when you’re signed into your UK Visas and Immigration (UKVI) account
  • the Home Office set up your UKVI account and you’ve never been able to sign in to it

You’ll need to give:

  • an email or UK postal address that UKVI can use to contact you
  • your name, date of birth and nationality

If you’re reporting that your name, date or birth or nationality are wrong, you’ll need to give them as they appear in your eVisa.

You’ll also be asked to give one of the following:

  • passport number
  • expired biometric residence permit (BRP) number
  • global web form (GWF) number from your visa application
  • unique application number (UAN) from your visa application
  • UKVI customer number
