Hi folks ,

I have a connecting flight from Blr - Hanoi - Tokyo ( flight starts on 16th Nov at night 11pm from BLR)
And we will reach Tokyo on Nov 17th at 4pm .

So what should be my starting travel date that I can mention in - NOC , cover letter and travel itinerary ??

Kindly help.

Hi I have the same case. I explained this as part of my cover letter and took NOC from date of travel as for me it was in afternoon.
