I was just too excited to open and see my passport😰 as will need to used it for CFO stamping too...

I admit i was so stupid today😭

And it was too late for me reading the instruction not to open it😭

I was just so excited today 😰

I did not open the brown envelop i just get my passport and becoz of excitement I just rip out the clear plastic so wide😭😭😭 using my hand😂 but not the envelop only the clear plastic😰

So is it ok i did  teared widely the clear plastic that covers the borwn envelop which is my visa packe??

If so?? Do i need to go back in the embassy to ask them resealed it again the brown envelop with clear plastic?? 

Im sorry pls understand im geeting so historical now since i dont know what to do😭

That's fine. You can open the plastic to get your passport (in fact you need to do this to show the passport to travel...). You just can't open the manila envelope (the one that says DO NOT OPEN).

Omg i was so worried today after I did it...

Yes the Brown Envelop was sealed and I never open it or detach anything that have been attached to the brown envelop ...

No need to re-seal the plastic. As long as the manila envelope is intact (I believe USEM still cuts the corner so customs can see it's only documents inside), you're good to go.

 

If you're still unsure, please post a photo of the package (and block out any personal information, if any).

Looks fine to me. Only the plastic was opened to get the passport, not the visa packet.
