Calling Visa

Visa Services & Immigration Consulting

Calling Visa – Who is it for and what are the benefits?

Unfortunately, not all nationalities can access Indonesia as freely as others and some nationalities require authorization from the Indonesian Immigration Authority prior to applying for a visa to enter Indonesia. This Visa type is known as the calling visa. 

Once authorization has been granted, then you can apply for a visa.

These countries are:

Afghanistan, Guinea, Israel, North Korea, Liberia, Niger, Nigeria, Somalia

Please note that the process can be quite time consuming, expensive and there is no guarantee that you will be able to obtain authorization from the authority, although our experienced team has helped dozens of people with their calling visa’s so you are in safe hands.

In terms of visa type or length some nationalities are more flexible than othersfor example, it may be possible to obtain a Working KITAS for Nigerian nationalities; however, the same isn’t possible for Israel nationalities. Therefore each situation can be different and we judge each applicant on a case by case basis.

Thus far, our team has successfully completed 100% of our applications.

If you have any questions about this, please feel free to contact the LetsMoveIndonesia team and we can advise on the possibilities.
