TLDR : Answer Summary
The conversation discusses experiences related to applying for a Thai visa in person at the Consulate in Jakarta. Users share their insights on the approval likelihood after document submission and payment, express concerns about differing information regarding when payment is collected, and seek clarity on the specific documents needed for remote worker applications. Additionally, there are inquiries about whether an appointment is necessary before visiting the consulate.

Did you need to book an appointment ahead of time or just walk in with your documents?

If it's all real documents and they didn't ask you too many questions... You can just conclude you will get the visa.

Hiya, I just want to ask, did you apply as remote worker? If so would you mind sharing what you had to submit? I've been following a while and wondering if any requirements have changed at all

I own houses, so then I submitted my insurance for the houses-property taxes for the houses bank statements of rent and showed five months of bank statements .

What location did you go to in Jakarta?

@Jay ******
there’s only one location. Google maps has two, but only one exists.

This is the embassy location

Appears to be contrary to what has previously been posted. Online applications pay in advance and risk losing the fee. In person not paying until application granted.

no in Jakarta you have to pay when you apply. Ans sign a paper that you forfeit the fee if rejected. Same as online application. You then come 3 days later to pick up the visa or rejection. I witnessed one “pick up rejection “ when i picked up my DTV.

Which is what this post also say 🤷🏻 I applied about 2 months ago in Jakarta.
Tore *********
No I didn’t ask. But Jakarta is known to be easy with DTV. I wouldn’t worry, good luck 👍

oh ya I see that now.

Did you ask why he got rejected.

Sure hope all I provided was perfect

Thanks for your input! That being the case they really shouldn’t have said ‘looks OK’ unless the person accepting payment was the one who actually approves/rejects?

@Christopher **********
I see your point, but initial document check has never been a guarantee of approval.

That said, in my experience Jakarta was extremely easy/lenient. I literally only provided passport, bank statement and a single hospital appointment.
