You will need to pay for the administration fee in local currency for the visa application process and the duration will vary depending on the country where you submit the visa application.

We will arrange all this for you and guide you every step of the way. The KITAS Indonesia visa conversion process can take up to thirty (30) days in the local immigration office.
