After 5 years on a Pension Kitas lansia (Kitas Lansia), I am eligible to obtain a Kitap Visa. Kantor Immigration is saying the application cost is 25 juta. My highly crooked agent is saying the total price is 35 juta.. which includes sponsor letters from a registered travel agent (Bali IDE) and a bunch of other stuff that all seem quite similar to what I have been paying previously for my Kitas Visa. That cost me 8 juta per year.
I've done a complete search of the Internet, including www.expat.org has no one seems to have any information about how much a Kitap should cost. A couple forums have said as little as 3 juta. Does anyone have any hands-on experience about obtaining a Kitap visa? I feel like I am a walking ATM machine, since Immigration, et. al. seem to be making this up as they go along.
