What could be causing delays in receiving updates for my DTV visa application in Jakarta?

Jun 5, 2025

Hello everyone,

I applied for the DTV visa in Jakarta on May 25, and today marks the 10th day since submission.

So far, I haven’t received any updates—no request for additional documents or communication of any kind.

I would like to ask:

Why might it be taking longer than expected?

How many more days should I expect to wait, approximately?

Has anyone received visa approval in early June already?

Thank you in advance for any information shared.

ORIGINAL POSTER
On the night of May 26, the visa application was submitted, and by 9:00 PM on June 5, the visa was approved — without any additional document requests.

You can also expect to receive your result around this time.

In fact, during May and June, there were quite a few public holidays, which may have caused some delays.

It's happening everywhere. Two holidays this week and six in May. I'm going to assume every embassy is backlogged.
