Jakarta Or Bali For Tourist Visa And Are There Limits?

[CaroThailand2008]

Hi,

I have a few questions about the Tourist Visa. I've already gotten about 6 of them--in Singapore, Phnom Penh, Penang, Taipei and most recently Nairobi. Neither were particularly tough places, with exception of Nairobi. Penang had a small consulate and thus was super easy.

-I would like to apply next in Indonesia- Are Jakarta or Bali tough places to apply?

-When I was in Nairobi, however, I tried for a non-immigrant B, was denied, but they gave me a 60 day tourist visa again. They told me that I should return to the US (my home country) to get the next tourist visa. They said there was a limit on the number of tourist visas that you can get from abroad. I wasn't aware about this limit.

And would it be a good idea to apply for a new passport, so it's not "jam packed" with Thai visas?

Thanks gang!

Shouldn't be a problem getting a single entry.

I have seen reports of people staying here for a year or more just using tourist visas in and out.

I wouldn't worry about changing passport. It might not help because they link the two passports together in immigrations computer system if you get your new passport here.

Got a double entry last may from Jakarta, without any trouble.
