Hi everyone,

I am off to bali on a social visa. I have filled out all my application forms and have my sponsor information and letter already. I am currently unsure where to send my application too. I am in Darwin, northern territory p, australia and needing some guidance on where I should be sending my app too. If anyone could let me know where I am to send it too would be great

Thanks in advance

Just out of curiosity, why did you bother with a social visa when its now the exact same visa (B211) as the 60 day visit visa?

The 60 day visit visa is also extendable here in Bali for up to 4 times, each extension being good for another 30 days, total length of stay 180 days...just like the social/cultural visa.

The advantage is that there is no need for a sponsor letter at the time of visa application.
