Finland: visa decisions in Indonesia
| Year | Applications | Visas issued | Refused | Refusal rate | Multiple-entry share |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| 2023 | 1,814 | 1,656 | 103 | 5.8% | 14.6% |
| 2024 | 2,808 | 2,596 | 97 | 3.6% | 14.1% |
| 2025 | 2,725 | 2,568 | 122 | 4.5% | 32.6% |
In 2025, Finland’s embassy and consulates in Indonesia (Jakarta) received 2,725 applications for short-stay Schengen visas and issued 2,568. 4.5% of applications were refused. In 2024 the rate was much the same, 3.6%. Applications fell by 3% compared with 2024 (2,808).
For comparison, all Schengen states together refused 5.2% of the applications lodged in Indonesia that year, from 0.0% at the consulates of Austria to 10.1% at those of Croatia. Finland’s consulates worldwide refused 13.4%. Finland was the 13th most applied-for Schengen state in Indonesia.
You apply to the Schengen state that is your main destination (the longest stay or the main purpose; the state of first entry only when there is none), so a lower rate elsewhere is no reason to apply there. The figures cover applications lodged in Indonesia, by any nationality: mostly citizens, but also residents from other countries.
