Asking specifically about Jakarta —

Do you pay upfront? Or do you pay on pickup?

I seem to remember someone saying they paid the visa fee at pickup, and that would be super convenient for me as I’m needing to exchange money.

TLDR : Answer Summary
A user inquired about whether visa fees in Jakarta are paid upfront or at the time of pickup. Comments clarified that the payment is made at the time of application, although applicants are allowed to fix any missing documents before final submission.

You pay when you apply

Yes, pay when applying but they let you go to fix documents if something is missing

Unless I'm mistaken you pay when you apply and turn in the documentation.

just applied today in Jakarta — will make a post soon.

I think I was actually remembering someone saying “if you make a mistake, they let you leave and go fix your mistake before paying” so payment is the last bit and isn’t the cost of entry.
