Generally, no. A Working KITAS is intended for foreigners who are formally employed by an Indonesian company and have a registered employer sponsoring their work permit. Freelancers and self-employed individuals cannot sponsor themselves for a Work KITAS and are therefore not eligible for this type of permit. If you work independently or remotely, you may need to consider alternative visa options, such as: - the Remote Work KITAS (for digital nomads and remote workers), or - other visa types, depending on your activities and length of stay We can help you choose the option that best fits your situation.
Generally, no. A Working KITAS is job-specific, and foreign employees are expected to work only in the position listed in their employment contract and work permit. If a KITAS holder performs additional roles or works in a different position, this may: - violate immigration and manpower regulations - require an additional work permit (RPTKA/Work Permit) - result in fines, KITAS cancellation, or compliance issues for the company If the role changes significantly, a new job title or an updated application may be required.
Unfortunately, no. A Working KITAS is tied to your employer, not to you personally. If you change your job, your current KITAS becomes invalid. You must: 1. Obtain an EPO (Exit Permit Only) to close your existing KITAS, and then 2. Your new employer must apply for a new Work KITAS on your behalf. Without following this process, you cannot legally work for a different company in Indonesia.

For safety, we recommend carrying: - a printed copy of your passport, or - a digital scan/photo of your passport on your smartphone This is usually sufficient for identification if needed.
Normally, you do not need to leave your passport at the Immigration Office. You bring it to your appointment and take it back immediately.

Yes. If you don’t have all the required documents ready when you apply, that’s no problem. You can simply send the missing documents later via WhatsApp or email.

If your visa has already expired, you must expect to pay an overstay fine of 1,000,000 IDR per person per day. The fine must be paid in cash at the airport or at the Immigration Office when you leave Indonesia. It's important to plan a bit of extra time for the payment process. Longer overstays can lead to more serious consequences, such as: - Complications with future visa applications - Deportation - Entry bans What should you do now? ✔ 1. If your visa type can still be extended Start the extension process immediately. Whether an extension is still possible depends on your visa type and how long you have overstayed. ✔ 2. If an extension is not possible Leave Indonesia as soon as possible to minimize the overstay fine and avoid further consequences. Important: The longer you remain in Indonesia without a valid visa, the higher the risk of: - increased fines - administrative issues - immigration investigations If you are unsure whether your visa can still be extended, contact us, and we will assess your options.
You do not need to leave your passport at Immigration. You only bring it for your biometrics appointment and you take it back with you immediately afterward. As long as your visa extension was submitted before your current visa expired, you will not incur any overstay fees. Immigration counts the submission date, not the approval date. So even if your extension is still being processed when your original visa expires, you are legally covered.
You will receive your visa as a PDF file with a QR code, sent to your email. If preferred, we can also send it to you via WhatsApp. Your visa is electronically linked to your passport, and it will be automatically recognized when your passport is scanned at Immigration. A printed copy is usually not required, but we recommend keeping one as a backup.
Rejections are very rare. In our experience, we have not had a single case where a visa application was rejected, as long as all requirements were met and the applicant provided accurate information. When can a visa be rejected? A rejection usually only occurs in exceptional cases, such as: - The applicant is listed on the Indonesian immigration blacklist - Previous violations of Indonesian immigration or criminal law - An outstanding international arrest warrant - Providing false information or forged documents For standard applicants who meet the official visa requirements, the visa is normally approved without issues.
