You can make a custom padded TextField. You could try something like this

class PaddedTextFeild: UITextField {
    let padding = UIEdgeInsets(top: 0, left: 15, bottom: 0, right: 5)
    override open func textRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
        return bounds.inset(by: padding)
    }
    override open func placeholderRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
        return bounds.inset(by: padding)
    }
    override open func editingRect(forBounds bounds: CGRect) -> CGRect {
        return bounds.inset(by: padding)
    }
}

You could try using this class as it is. And change the UIEdgeInsets defined in the first line.
