How long does it take to receive the DTV Visa after reaching Pending Approval at the Jakarta embassy?

Feb 28, 2025

Hello everyone,

Here’s my situation: I applied for the DTV Visa on Wednesday, February 26. My status was Pending Document Check for two days until today, Friday, February 28. They requested a more recent photo with a plain white background, which I uploaded. As soon as I submitted it, my status changed instantly to Pending Approval.

Has anyone in this group applied at the Jakarta embassy? If so, how long did it take after reaching Pending Approval to receive the visa?

(As a side question, is it possible that even after reaching Pending Approval, they might request additional documents?)

I have a flight back to Bangkok on Thursday, March 6. Should I keep my flight, or is it too uncertain? Thanks!

A user inquired about the timeline for receiving a DTV Visa after their status changed to Pending Approval at the Jakarta embassy. They also wondered if additional documents could be requested at this stage and whether they should maintain their flight scheduled for March 6. Community responses indicated that it is possible to receive additional requests for documents or an interview after reaching Pending Approval, but some users shared their experiences of quick approvals following similar situations.

Exact same thing happened to me with the photo and they took 2 working days to approve.

An interview or location check are possible until the very end. I would suggest to stay where you are until confirmation.

Yes - it can go back to more documents needed from this stage. It can sometimes even go to interview requested, but hopefully you’ll be fine.
