SHARE: Jakarta, Indonesia Embassy

Family of three from New Zealand. (Me as lead, husband as spouse and daughter 12 as dependJonny Greenert)

18th November 2024.

Applied this morning.

Hubby Jonny got short straw and went to wait at Embassy early am. He was there by 6.15am and was 10th in the queue. Probably about 100 people behind us by the time the doors opened.

In and out by 10am. The Embassy Team were super helpful all around from security to the team accepting your documents and payment. - gave back any docs not needed, took payment and gave slip to come back on Thursday to collect passports after lunch.

Applied under Remote Worker / Digital Nomad

We have two companies in NZ - one tourism, one business coaching. We choose to apply under the business coaching business cause client contracts, income and portfolio was easiest to create.

Provided the following:

For me as “DTV” remote worker

Bank account with NZ $66k at ending balance (about 1.3m baht) gave six months balance fluctuates from $2k through to the $66k throughout that period.

Investments of approx $80k at ending balance (approx 1.6m baht) kinda liquid - added just in case.

Company registration in NZ plus NZBN registration, plus companies office extract which shows the two of us as sole shareholders of business with our trust - which on the extract shows our names and my Mum’s as our third trustee. My husband and I are the two directors of the company.

Stripe report showing subscription payments of approximately NZ$300k over 12 months - didn’t bother giving Xero invoices and payments to bank as it felt excessive. I also printed out all existing client contracts but they didn’t want those. For all financials we put into xe.com to exchange and screenshot and added to application.

Letter from my husband and I saying I can work remotely.

Employment Contract showing I can work remotely and remuneration is dependent on profit of company.

Screenshot on PDf of my website, social channels and podcast.

Rental agreement for house in Thailand

Airbnb printout for Jakarta

Flight details for Friday this week.

For Jonny

Marriage certificate.

Sponsorship letter saying I am responsible for him financially and he will follow all the rules in Thailand. While educating our daughter in the rich Thai culture.

Copies of bank statements / financials.

Copy of my passport and his.

For daughter

Birth certificate

Sponsorship letter saying same as above and that Jonny would homeschool.

Copie of bank statements / financials.

Copy of my passport and hers

Three yellow envelopes of cash each with $5.6m rupiah.

Stuff to think about:

ATMs in Jakarta seem to have upper limit of $2.5m per withdrawal. So you’ll need to do three even if there is just one of you. We had to do 7 withdrawals.

Accommodation and flights to and from Jakarta from NZ to Thailand afterwards were all still cheaper than applying in NZ.

Now we wait - will update on Thursday when we pick up passports - or earlier if they ask/need further information from me.

Been in and out of Thailand since June 2024 - both Jonny and I have left for work and our all extensions done for our daughter.

Any questions hit us up below. Aside from the early start very smooth easy process. Huge thanks to this community for all the tips.

So I've decided to go with a Muay Thai DTV. I've found a gym in Bangkok and have all my requirements in order. My nearest embassy is in Washington DC but I also plan on traveling in Asia a bit before heading to Thailand. Is there an advantage in applying in your home country or elsewhere? I'm going to be in Manila and Jakarta anyway so thinking about applying there.

If you haven't watched this about the DTV, I reccomend it.

When I watched it back the end of July, it gave me the confidence immediately apply.

There seems to be alot of assumptions/speculations and hear say about the DTV from folks. This video helped clear up alot for me.

Give it a watch if you haven't already, it's an exclusive interview with the man in the Thai Government who oversees the entire Visa program.

Hiiii it’s me again 😅

Went to my appt at embassy in Vientiane and they took my money and my application along with my Ed visa paperwork that my school gave me and sent me on my way within 5 mins max. The guy looked annoyed though I had everything ready 🫠 he briefly looked through my paperwork and then stamped it and said bye..

Does that mean I am good to go and won’t see any issues when I go to pick up my passport on Monday or is it possible to get denied and only find out when I get there?

Would they have taken everything if something was wrong?

Trying to be as proactive as possible because my flight is out in the morning on Tuesday and I’m a newbie at all of this.

TIA for grace and kindness 🫶🏽

Does anyone have experience applying for tourist visa in cebu Philippines. Every site sends you back to official manilla embassy site. Is it possible in Cebu still? Is any issues people have had getting visa there?
