Solution number one: grab a pen. A good pen. Not a dried-out hotel biro that skips on the page.
Sign your name exactly as you wrote it on the application. No nicknames, no extra flourishes. Just your true, official scribble.
Then, photograph it. Take a picture of your signed signature page. That way, you have proof in case it smudges later. You’re welcome.
The Final, Silly Truth
Your passport is a magical document. It opens doors, skips lines, and proves you are a citizen of a sovereign nation. And it demands your autograph.
So before you zip your bag, do the check. Open the little blue (or burgundy) book. Look at page three. Is there a signature? If not, fix it now.
Because the only thing worse than a delayed flight is a cancelled trip. And all because you forgot to scribble your own name. Now, go sign that thing.
