Work Permit Indonesia: when will you need one?

If you plan on staying and working long-term in Indonesia, a work permit is the only document that grants you to do so legally. Keep in mind that the bureaucratic process to obtain a work permit in Indonesia is quite complicated. It involves multiple government agencies such as the immigration office and the Ministry of Manpower.

Those unfamiliar with Indonesian visa applications should seek assistance from an experienced visa agent for peace of mind.

As the only document allowing foreigners to generate income in Indonesia, the authorities have laid strict requirements for obtaining an Indonesian work permit.

For instance, foreigners who wish to work in Indonesia must meet the educational requirements and qualifications for specific positions, have competency certificates, and transfer their knowledge and skills to their local counterparts.

Indonesia Work Permit: RPTKA Approval and KITAS

The Indonesian government issues your work permit based on the document called Foreign Worker Utilization Plan or RPTKA Approval, filed by your sponsor, or in this case, your employer. Once the Ministry of Manpower approves your RPTKA, the authorities will grant a limited stay visa that serves as the basis for Immigration Office to issue your limited stay permit or KITAS. With a KITAS in Indonesia, you can stay in Indonesia for between one and 12 months, depending on which work visa or working permit you have obtained.

Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. One of the advantages of having a Representative Office is that it can apply KITAS for its foreign executives.

No, you don't need to be in Indonesia during the process. Your sponsoring company or the agent/consultant that you use may process it and when it's renewed, you can then enter Indonesia.

The requirements may vary depending on whether you are looking to apply for a KITAS Work Visa, KITAS Marriage Visa or KITAS Retirement Visa. Ask our visa specialists for specific requirements by stating your KITAS need.

Yes. To be sponsored by InCorp, there are certain conditions to be satisfied, such as placing a deposit and leaving Indonesia once your KITAS is expired.

There are three types, namely KITAS Work Visa, KITAS Marriage Visa and KITAS Retirement Visa.

The duration of processing the visa will largely depend on the type of visa you are applying for. Work Permit and Stay Permit take approximately 2 months to arrange. If an applicant is a director of a company, then it is valid for 1 year. If an applicant take up any other positions, then the visa is valid for 6 months.

This will vary depending on your country of origin. Indonesia has a list of restricted countries, including Afghanistan, Guinea, Israel, North Korea, Cameroon, Liberia, Niger, Nigeria, and Somalia. Citizens from those countries who are planning to obtain a stay visa or work visa will find the process complicated and difficult and with a large possibility that their application will be rejected.
