Any advantage in using apps like Issa to apply (in Jakarta) over just doing it myself? I have to provide all documents myself anyway, if they need improvement the embassy will email me themselves. Right? The money back guarantee doesn't even apply to Indonesia.
Answer summary
The discussion centers on the advantages and disadvantages of using the Issa app for visa applications in Jakarta, compared to applying independently. One user shared their positive experience, stating that Issa helped avoid document rejections by reviewing submissions beforehand, which led to a successful application. Other comments suggest that hiring an agency or using an app can be beneficial if applicants feel unsure about presenting themselves or their documents convincingly. However, there are mixed opinions about the necessity of using such services, with some suggesting that ample information is available for self-application.

I m not writing against using Agency at all. I think to apply DTV is the process how to prove and present yourself to embassy you are the right applicant and so-called good quality traveler to Thailand. If you are not so sure or hesitation on how to introduce yourself and doc preparation to secure your application, of course hiring agent is your option. (Especially for someone doesn't really has a “regular" job such as stock trader, crypto investors...etc)

I tried it alone. Got rejected. Used Issa and got approved.

The benefit is they will tell you if something is missing before you submit. There was no request for follow up documents.

100% recommend. It’s was only an additional 5000 bhat. Well worth it.
