Indonesia Visa Requirements For Pakistani Citizens
Now, the strange requirements for an Indonesian visa are what makes getting one hard. First of all, when you go to the consulate to turn in your application, the woman behind the counter is not very good at helping people who want visas.
Update: The woman has now changed, and the new woman seems to be doing fine. She will ask you simple questions about why and how long you want to stay in Indonesia. the end.
They do have a website, but I do not think it is been changed in 200 years. So, it is best to call them and ask about the most recent needs.
Update 2: Indonesia is now letting tourists use evisas. The only way to get this evisa is through a sponsor in Indonesia. It will cost almost three times as much as the fee for an Indonesian visa in Pakistan right now. If you need an evisa directly from Indonesia, send us an email or use WhatsApp to get in touch with us, and we will take care of it from there.
When I visited the consulate in 2022. The following are the exact requirements to apply for an Indonesian visa in Karachi.
- Two filled-out visa forms with two white-background photos
- A cover letter asking for a visa and giving all the details of the trip and your job or business. This letter must be on the letterhead of the place where you work or do business.
- A bank account from the last six months and a certificate of upkeep
- A hotel reservation for every day in Indonesia
- A ticket for a round-trip flight (I made a reservation)
- First passport and all other papers
- A copy of the first three pages of the passport (A4 size).
- A copy of your CNIC (size A4)
- NTN and Registration for a Businessperson
- The $50 USD fee for a visa must be paid in PKR at a bank.
Note: After you send in your visa application, they will give you a payment voucher to pay the needed fee in the bank. They will tell you which bank to go to, and you will pay the fee there and bring the payment slip back to the consulate.
Best Tips for Getting Indonesia Visa in Pakistan
I was asked to give an “Undertaking Letter,” but I did not know what it was. It turned out that the travel agent who booked my flight had given me this letter that I needed to take to the port. I told the woman that I had bought the ticket myself, and she let me get a visa without that stupid letter.
When people from Punjab apply for a visa in Islamabad, they must also bring a “Police Character Certificate” along with the other documents mentioned above.
In Islamabad, this is a must. I do not know why the same country needs it in Islamabad but not in Karachi, but visa rules are always weird and strange. You can get this document from your city’s police station.
If you are only going to be in Indonesia for 5 days, they will only give you a visa for 6 days. This means that you can only stay in Indonesia for 6 days. So, be smart about where you stay.
I put on my application that I would only stay for 8 days, but I was only given a visa for 10 days. Here is a picture of my Indonesian visa, which shows that I can only stay there for 10 days at most. So, if you want to stay longer, list more days.
