Welcome to the visa pages of the U.S. Embassy Jakarta, Indonesia


What is a Visa ?

A visa a document is issued by a U.S. Embassy or Consulate. A visa entitles the holder to travel to the United States and apply for admission; it does not guarantee entry.  An immigration inspector at the port of entry determines the visa holder's eligibility for admission into the United States.

• Nonimmigrant visas are required by anyone seeking temporary admission into the United States for tourism, business, education, medical treatment, or petition-based employment. The type of visa required depends on your purpose of travel.  
• Immigrant visas are for applicants planning to permanently relocate to the United States.

Location: Jalan Medan Merdeka Selatan No. 5,  Jakarta Pusat.  The Embassy is just south of the Indonesian National Monument in Central Jakarta.  There is no parking at or near the Embassy so please come by taxi.
