Thread: My Visa Plan

Then do not because you are wrong. I will look up the law and post it to you. Also look on the indonesian embassy web site. The fact you need a sponser to do it tells me it is being treated as a sosbod visa. Look at the logic of two visa types doing exactly the same thing in the same way.

Ask your agent to quote me the law, not for me but for the thousands who have used a sosbud visa over the years without any point as they could have done it this way.

Please see link below which clearly states that a 2 month tourist visa Cannot be extended.

Indonesian Embassy in London

For me its end of story on this.

And finally you can follow a similar discussion that ends with the law in Indonesian and Englis where you will see what I first stated in previous posts to be correct.


How to extend 60 day B211 "tourist visa" issued in europe without sponsor?

"The confusion arises because both are a 211 visa but a social buday has the name of the sponsor written on the visa."

Errr... not on mine.

Sorry Jimbo and others you are wrong. Have you ever had a B211 visa? Why was the visa changed to the same number? If you get a sponsor you can extend your stay that's why, you don't have to have a sponsor before hand. If you spend 60 days as a tourist and then decide you want to extend your stay for social or cultural reasons then just get a sponsor and submit your application. If it is approved that's up to immigration. They have told me it's no problem. It is not prohibited by law, the tourist visa is not being extended it is being converted to a different subcategory. I wouldn't be quoting the moderator of that other forum he gets it wrong all the time.
