The embassy provides a list of approved translators with packet of forms needed to be completed before the interview. When we went through, it was also available on the site. But i can't find where it was at. Email jakconsul@state.gov to get a list of translators.

Hello,

Though it could be useful.

I asked this question to Jakarta Embassy ,not that long time ago.

Mr. Ongko,

Unfortunately all panel physicians are located in Jakarta. Applicant must have the medical examination done by the appointed panel physician.

We won’t require sworn translations. Any accurate translation by a person competent in both languages is sufficient. If someone’s personal translation is not good enough, we’ll require another one.

Hello,

I have some questions regarding K1 requirements

1. Do you have a list of approved doctors for K1 medical exam in city of Surabaya? Or this can only be done in Jakarta?

2. Also , if documents that need to be translated to English, can we go to any Translator to get it translated? Or it has to be from a certified place? If i may also have a list of these translators for city of Surabaya (if possible) & Jakarta.

Thank You,

My fiance just received his K-1 yesterday from the Jakarta embassy . He had his documents officially translated by someone who was able to give the translation a materi (special stamp) and signature proving it was authentic. There is actually a list of translators provided by the US embassy Jak website, some who are located outside Jakarta.

My fiance's medical interview was scheduled on April 14, and he had all the neccesary documents for the interview about 4 days later. His interview was on April 20. Be sure to call the doctor's office and make an appoitnment ahead of time - there are only three embassy approved doctors in Jakarta and they are all quite busy.

Also, just FYI - HIV tests are no longer required by the embassy, and neither is the police letter from your local office or from POLRI. I have this in writing, and would suggest you email them and get in writing the same information (which you can print out and can be carried to the interview).

Hope this helps!

Salam

If my fiances birth certificate has both English and Bahasa, do we need it translated. My vote is no, but I've quickly learned that my vote doesn't mean much to the process lol
