U.S. B1/B2 Visa from Indonesia

Because U.S. consular posts in Russia have suspended nonimmigrant visa services, it is temporarily not possible to apply for a U.S. nonimmigrant visa there.

In Indonesia, B1/B2 applications are accepted by the embassy in Jakarta and the consulate in Surabaya. You can apply only if you hold a valid Indonesian residence permit, either a KITAS or KITAP.

Our initial review: we assess your situation, analyze the risk of refusal, and determine the most appropriate application strategy based on your visa history, immigration status, and purpose of travel.

Common reasons for refusal:

• Insufficient evidence that you will return to your country of residence
• An incomplete document package
• Inconsistent answers during the interview
• No clear travel plan

The refusal rate in Indonesia for citizens of Russia, Belarus, and Ukraine is approximately 30-35%.

Before we begin, we review your visa history, immigration status in Indonesia, purpose of travel, finances, and personal ties in detail.

Based on that review, we build an individual filing strategy and recommend either Jakarta or Surabaya, taking into account how applications are being reviewed and the current appointment load.

If we assess your chances as strong, we guide you through every stage of the application.

If the case needs work, we tell you before filing and provide specific recommendations to strengthen it so the application is well supported and has the best realistic chance of approval.
