Thank you very much to the people in this group who helped us to get our DTV approved🥳🥳 We got it in Jakarta and if there is anyone who is planning to go there before they switch to evisa later this month and has questions, let me know and I will try to respond. Generally, it is very smooth and the people there are very nice so I would definitely recommend it if you are in the area.

Several comments asked about the timeline for the e-visa switch and whether it was possible to apply for a DTV while on a tourist visa.

yeah it is a big city, great for eating out, shopping not too many major sightseeing places but you can take a train easily to other areas.

so I suppose best to choose a nice hotel, spend some time relaxing while waiting for the approval.
