I applied for a DTV (Workcation) at the Royal Thai Embassy in Jakarta on June 4, and my application is still under review.

The issue is that I’m currently in Indonesia on a 30-day visa exemption (A1 visa), and my permission to stay expires on July 1. Since I can’t extend it, I’ll have to leave Indonesia if the DTV isn’t approved before then.

Has anyone been in a similar situation?

* Is it okay to leave Indonesia while my DTV application at the Thai Embassy in Jakarta is still being processed?

* Did the embassy continue processing your application after you left, or did they require you to remain in Indonesia until a decision was made?

* If you experienced this, could you share what happened?

I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone with firsthand experience. Thanks in advance!

The user applied for a DTV (Workcation) visa at the Royal Thai Embassy in Jakarta but is facing a potential issue as their current visa exemption expires soon. They seek advice on whether it's acceptable to leave Indonesia while the application is still being processed and if the embassy continues the application process after leaving. Community responses suggest that the embassy often requires proof of ongoing presence in Indonesia for application approval and recommend checking options for extending their stay.

I believe you can extend your stay for another 30 days just like in thailand. Try to check the condition. I know people who extends their tourist visa before.

The Jakarta embassy frequently asks for proof that you're still in Indonesia before they approve the visa. That's why you should choose a visa in Indonesia that allows you to extend another 30 days. You could try to call or email the embassy to ask for the status of your application.
