What is the expected waiting time for a DTV visa in Jakarta during the holiday season?

Hi everyone. I’d like to ask if anyone can share their experience of obtaining a DTV visa in Indonesia through Jakarta.

I submitted my documents through an agent, and the status hasn’t changed since December 15. I was told there might be delays due to the holidays.

Has anyone experienced a long waiting time for a DTV visa? How long can the decision on my visa take?

Thank you all in advance for your replies.

25-26 Dec have been public holidays. 15th doesn't count as it was application day. So you have only been waiting 7 business days. I wouldn't worry yet.
