Has anyone applied for DTV from Indonesia? I am thinking to spend some time in Bali, & at the same time apply for dtv visa. I’d like to know how is the approval rate and processing time?
Just wanted to share my experience applying for the Digital Nomad Visa (DTV) in Jakarta. I submitted my application on Monday morning, February 24th, and it first showed “pending checking documents.” By Wednesday morning, February 27th, the status changed to “pending approval,” and later that evening, it was approved.
I applied under the Soft Power (Muay Thai) category with Wildcat Muay Thai, and Meaw Boonpradub was super helpful in getting all the necessary documents together quickly (definitely recommend).
Documents I Submitted:
• Financial Proof – A 6-month bank statement from a foreign bank in USD. I had the required amount sitting in my account for the past six months, but I’ve heard that this isn’t always mandatory. Along with that, I also included:
• A screenshot of my account balance from my banking app.
• A screenshot of the exchange rate for that day.
• All three were combined into a single PDF file.
• Muay Thai Documents – Provided by Wildcat Muay Thai.
• Proof of Location – A picture of the Indonesian Visa Stamp in my passport.
• Scanned Passport
• Visa Photo
For accommodation in Thailand, I just listed where I was staying, but they didn’t ask for any proof.
Thanks everyone for all the information regarding the process!
P.S. If you’re planning to apply in Jakarta, you don’t actually have to be there—you just need to be somewhere in Indonesia. I didn’t realize this beforehand, and let’s just say Jakarta is not for beginners !
Hello everyone, does anyone know if it’s possible to apply for the DTV visa online from anywhere in Indonesia? Or is it necessary to go to the embassy in person in jakarta? Thanks in advance for your help!
Hey - was wondering if anyone has advice on applying from Bali, since I have a free place to stay (also not sure about the document requiring proof of location, would have the Visa on Arrival but not hotel booking). Was told you could apply online from there, but also there was a chance that you might be called for an interview, in which you would have to fly to Jakarta. So was just wondering if I should take the safe route and just fly to Jakarta or if there was a good chance of having no issues applying from Bali.
Any recommandation on a nice health insurance in SEA for a 25 yo man? I will be thailand 6 months per year and other months i would split between indonesia/vietnam/philippines… not sure yet.
Hello, I have a trip planned to Indonesia at the end of February, and I would like to apply for a DTV Visa (Soft Power) while in Jakarta. However, the required 500,000 THB will only be in my account about one week before my departure to Indonesia. I can provide a six-month bank statement showing my account activity, but the 500,000 THB balance will appear just a few days before my visa application. Would this be sufficient?
Hello all, my girlfriend who is from Indonesia is planning on applying for the DTV (using soft power for cooking classes) in Jakarta and she is not employed. I support her and pay for everything for us but am wondering if that will be a problem in getting approved if she is unemployed? I do plan on making the deposit of $15,000 into her account (and plan to be added/named on her account as well) and also wonder if we should wait three months before applying or if she could get approved with just one or two months of statements.
I applied through e-visa in Indonesia on 02/01 03:00 after I landed. Approved on Monday 06/01 13:00.
I applied as a freelance writer. Provided them with official business registration from my home country, 2 letters from employers stating I have worked for them and will continue to do so remotely. Also gave them screenshots of my website, social media, resume, and examples of my work.
Current address: An exit stamp of Thailand, entry stamp + visa for Indonesia, hotel booking.
I also gave them 3 months statement of my savings account and my 2022 invoices overview, and a signed contract for some work I'm doing right now.
PS: Jakarta is the worst city I have ever been to in my life (I am well traveled person). I got robbed by three men on a motorbike and got sick due to air pollution. The food is very bad and the city smells and is unhygienic. 2 other people in my hotel got their phones stolen as well. So I run away to Bali after 2 days.
Good luck with your application and thank you all for sharing your tips and tricks.
