TLDR : Answer Summary
The stay duration for visa applications in Jakarta has changed recently, with reports indicating that processing times now average between 14 to 21 days. Individual experiences vary: one user reported being approved in 6 business days after a 10-day stay, while another person mentioned their approval took 7 business days, with a total stay of 22 days due to logistics and holidays.

Anonymous participant yeah just got a client approved in 5 days in Vietnam.

But also heavily depends on application if it’s bulletproof proof it goes a lot faster.

An example with my client:

I knew we would get requested for full passport pages, income clarification and email confirmation from the soft power company.

I made sure everything was ready as fast as possible when the request came through.
