I believe the Indonesia Stay Permit is the KITAS, it is like a residency stamp for non-Indonesians living in Indonesia. I know that there is a small list of nationalities that can only apply in Indonesia, if they are residing there (most countries can apply on a tourist visa though). What is your nationality?

Did you apply under soft power? If so, how long was the course you signed up for?

@Michael *******

you state “rejection” in your post, so people assume you were rejected

Your registration details

@Oleksandr **********

- So when did you first reach out to them via the email address that they supplied?

@Oleksandr **********

clearly this guy doesn’t know anything. It would most likely not work. Culturally, “saving face” is important. Going up to an official and directly telling them it is their fault is asking for problems. If you are even able to get in contact with them, you need to do it in a much more humble manner. Apologize, highlight how the tech must have made an error, as the email with the invite never came through, etc.

Can you share the email you received regarding the interview? (Black out any personal details). Curious what they said, as not sure I have seen mention of a virtual interviews before

@Tammy ***

through the same embassy as your friend? When did your friend apply? Most embassies have been requiring 6+ months of training and if less giving out tourist visas.

Did you check your spam accounts?

What type of DTV did you apply for? Soft power? If so, how long was the class for?
