Visa Services & Immigration Consulting
The Diaspora KITAS (Repatriation Visa) is a temporary visa for ex-WNI or former Indonesian citizens who have lost their citizenship to become citizens of another country.
This stay permit has a primary purpose to begin the process of regaining Indonesian citizenship. After entering Indonesia with a 1-year KITAS, they can renew it or apply for a KITAP (Permanent Stay Permit).
The validity of the Indonesia visa for repatriation is 1 year and is extendable annually for a maximum of 6 years.
Indonesia offers streamlined visa pathways for foreign nationals looking to establish a business under a PT PMA (foreign-owned company). With investor-focused residency options, entrepreneurs can gain long-term stay rights while actively managing their investment in the local market.
The Investor KITAS is a temporary stay permit designed for foreign shareholders in an Indonesian PT PMA. It provides the right to reside and manage operations without a separate work permit (IMTA), accelerating the setup and compliance process for active investors. Minimum capital thresholds apply.
The Investor KITAP is a permanent stay permit granted to long-term foreign investors who have held an Investor KITAS for at least two consecutive years. It offers five-year renewable residency, allowing greater mobility, fewer reporting requirements, and long-term security for strategic investors in Indonesia.
