Why applications on this route get refused

Incomplete sponsor documents
Your sponsor submits the application on evisa.imigrasi.go.id with a full electronic file for you; the official checklist lists specific items that must all be included.
How to avoid it: Work through the official checklist with your sponsor before they submit, in the file formats the portal specifies.
Insufficient proof of funds
The visa requires a 3-month bank statement showing at least USD 2,000 (or the equivalent) in your name or your sponsor's name.
How to avoid it: Check the statement covers the full 3 months and clearly shows a balance at or above the minimum before your sponsor submits the application.
Visa not used within its validity
The visa is valid for 90 days from issue. If you don't enter Indonesia within that time, you must apply for a new visa.
How to avoid it: Plan your travel to Indonesia to fall within 90 days of the visa being issued.
Working outside what the permit allows
Holders are not allowed to stay beyond their permitted stay period or do work that doesn't match their permit.
How to avoid it: Keep your actual job and employer matching what was approved on your visa and stay permit.
