Timeframe for extension of Indonesian 60 days tourist visa

Question

How soon can I apply for a one month extension of my Indonesian 60 days tourist visa?

Answer 1

As far as I know there is NO time limitation in when to apply for a one month extension of a 60 days tourist visa.

I myself applied for such extension several weeks before the end of my visa. This process can take up to 2 weeks so make sure you apply at least 2 weeks before the end of your visa.

I wrote a complete guide on how to do this on this question How to extend Indonesian 60 days tourist visa in 2015?

Answer 2

There is a fairly comprehensive guide on how to do this at the Lash World Tour, which is too long to copy here but the key point is:

You need a sponsor for Tourist and Social Visa extensions

And there is a related question on this site as well:

Answer 3

You have to apply at least 3 working days before it ends.

It is not a written rule. In fact, as far as I know, it is not a written rule that you can extend a tourist visa (if you ask in 5 different immigration office, you will get 2 to the power of 5 answers)

So I suggest you don't push your luck and do it one week in advance.
