MAJOR UPDATES (Please OPEN!!)
Visa Issues Solved & Room Assignments
Hi everyone, quick updates. We took your feedback and have found solutions to the issues discussed.
Update 1: Visa Entry
The B211a visa is not required, you can come on VOA (visa on arrival). Although the B211a is technically the right visa we acknowledge that most people are simply digital nomading on VOA and it's fine. We just recommend the B211a for those who want to get super involved with the local community, and businesses, speak at local events etc.
Update 2: Flight Confirmations
Submit your flight confirmation via email to [email protected], and CC [email protected]
Update 3: Weekend Activities
Overall weekend activities are going to be covered by the mayor like general trips to Lembeh, but special activities like scuba diving (~$100 per dive) you’ll need to cover. However, if you are a certified open-water diver, let Olu & I know and we will try to see what we can do!
Update 4: Room Assignments
Your rooms are already reserved but as soon as we receive the email with your flight details please give our concierge 3 days to inform you as to the homestay you’ve been assigned. Thank you all for your patience in this new program!
Important Reminders
Purchase your Visa On Arrival at the airport when you arrive or get it online here.
If you haven’t filled out your Ambassador Arrival Form yet please do so here.
