1 Timing decides which option you have
Rwanda review runs 5 working days. That window has two halves:
- Straight after submission, before review starts — the best moment to raise it. Say precisely which field is wrong and what it should be.
- Once review has begun — in-place corrections are usually no longer accepted, and the clean route is a new application with correct details and a new US$90–US$150 government fee.
Because timing decides the outcome, do not wait to see whether it goes through.
2 Which errors are serious
High risk, because they make an approval mismatch the document you travel on: passport number, full name exactly as printed in the machine-readable line, date of birth, nationality and passport expiry date. Also serious: an unreadable passport scan, or a non-compliant photo.
Lower risk, but still worth confirming: minor address or contact details that do not appear on the passport.
3 Do this now
- Name the exact field — "passport number wrong", not "my form has an error".
- Have your reference, passport number and the correct value ready.
- Assume you may need to reapply, and check your departure date against 5 working days — no faster route is offered.
4 Before you resubmit
Work through the Rwanda eVisa requirements checklist, then continue to the application flow. Other questions for this destination are collected in the Rwanda eVisa FAQ.
