    How do I pay the USD fee for Limited Saty Visa?

    Appreciate the insight. Dang, sounds like there is something weird going on between my email address and imigrasi. I'll have to get to the bottom of that.

    How do I pay the USD fee for Limited Saty Visa?

    Yeah. I never got that email. Did yours come immediately after the application, or did it take a few days? I only have access to the codes through visa-online.imigrasi.go.id.

    How do I pay the USD fee for Limited Saty Visa?

    Thanks for all the info! Mine is a spouse VITAS, so my fee will be the $150. My huge concern now is email contact. I have gotten no emails from imigrasi, and we had this email issue before when we were trying to reset our password. I heard rumors that imigrasi's email system has a hard time...

    How do I pay the USD fee for Limited Saty Visa?

    Ugh... Mondays at Indonesian banks. Fun stuff. Only Rp. 750.000? When I applied last year through the Consulate here in the U.S., the USD fee was $150. That'd be a nice treat if the fee is only 750K. I read that you had a printout that you gave the bank. Was this a payment request email from...

    How do I pay the USD fee for Limited Saty Visa?

    Thanks for the help! :) Yeah, I am guessing we'll have to have a friend take IDR to BNI, convert it to USD and then immediately deposit it using the bank code. Seems like that's what Kiperto (the post above) is doing too. I wonder how the heck they expect expats to do all this while outside...

    How do I pay the USD fee for Limited Saty Visa?

    Thanks for the reply. Sorry you're having the same issues as me, but glad you seem to have found a fix. Do you think you'll have to do it in-person at the counter? Or do you think you can go through the ATM? Thankfully, we have family and friends there with BNI and Mandiri accounts to help.

    How do I pay the USD fee for Limited Saty Visa?

    Hey Guys, So, we spent 9 months in Indonesia and came back to the U.S. earlier in 2020, then COVID left us stranded here till now. My KITAS has since expired, and since Imigrasi has decided to allow mixed marriage folks to get visas again, we decided to head back to care for my dying mother in...

    Exiting with a MERP

    Yeah, my MERP is just a line on my e-ITAS printout. There is nothing in my passport other than the TELEX visa. I am guessing that is enough. Hopefully, someone who has the new e-ITAS can chime in with their experience.

    Exiting with a MERP

    Hey All, I have an ITAS and a MERP and am leaving Indo for a few months and was wondering how the MERP works. Last time I had my KITAS, I had to go to immigration and get an EPO stamp. This time, though, I have a MERP and the newer i-ITAS (no card, just a printout with my picture and ITAS...

    ITAS (so simple), but MERP is missing?

    After reading your reply, I decided to screenshot my ITAS and attach it. As I redacted the thing to keep some info private, I see in big, fat letters "Stay/Multiple Re-Entry Expiry"... Ugh... lol :) I guess they no longer stamp passports until you leave the country, and the MERP is just saved...

    ITAS (so simple), but MERP is missing?

    Yeah, no stamp or anything. Just a stamp that reads Kantor Imigrasi Tasikmalaya. And I see no mention of re-entry on my e-ITAS paperwork either. We are awaiting a reply from the Kator Imgrasi now about whether there is supposed to be a stamp or not. Their initial response was that the MERP is...

    ITAS (so simple), but MERP is missing?

    Hey all. So I went the online route to get VITAS in the U.S. and ITAS in Indo, which allowed me to completely bypass the stop at an embassy because the U.S. embassy allows you to mail it all in. Immigration went smoothly, but immigration office here seems to think you need to renew twice before...

    Internet providers limited (who to choose)

    I am looking now at 4G services (desperately trying to avoid Indihome) . Has anyone had any success with XL Home Unlimited (the 4G LTE service, not fiber)?

    Internet providers limited (who to choose)

    Yeah, we want Biznet, but our part of Tasikmalaya isn't covered yet :(. We need to pick up something until they finish installing cable. I am assuming since it will be all all-new cable, we should get a stable connection from Biznet.

    Air Conditioner vs. Air Cooler (Evaporative Cooling)

    Thanks for the great info Jstar. That is what my gut was telling me and my research, but thought it was best to confirm with someone in Indo. We decided to do a 1 or 1.5 ok on our second floor and see if enough cool air flows downstairs. If not, we will toss a 0.5 or 1 ok downstairs. We only had...

    Air Conditioner vs. Air Cooler (Evaporative Cooling)

    We are looking for a cooling solution for our rental house and are debating between an A/C or an evaporative cooler (AKA air cooler). Reading online, many people say humid areas like Indo are not great for air coolers, so I was thinking A/C may be better. I wanted to check on here first to see...

    Internet providers limited (who to choose)

    Hey all. We are just 20 days away from our return to Indonesia. Everything is set with a house and such, but we are now looking at internet connections. Since it's been seven years since we last lived in Indo, I wanted to get some more recent data from you all. I will maintain my employment in...

    Suggestions for building a house

    Wow! Thanks for all the info! We are looking to stretch to 180 or 200 square meters on the existing land. Hopefully they can get that much and still leave a sliver of a yard until we can buy out my wife's parent's old (foreclosed on) house behind the land we were gifted and turn that into our...

    Suggestions for building a house

    Mods: I wasn't sure where to put this, so feel free to move it if needed :). Apologies in advance. So, my wife and I are moving back to Indo permanently on May 23, 2018 (VITAS is already in hand without setting foot in a consular or immigration office, but more on that later), and we were...

    Indonesian Driving Licence?

    I am very curious if the smallish town I am going back to in May has finally made it possible to test at all. When I was there in 2011, they used the testing track as a parking lot, so there was no practical test. And none of the theory computers actually worked, so the only test was whether or...
