E31 Dependent Visa – Who is it for and what are the benefits

A Dependent Visa (KITAS) in Indonesia is a type of visa that allows family members (spouse, children under 17 years old) of a foreign national who holds a primary visa (like a work permit or KITAS/KITAP) to live with them in Indonesia.

A Dependent Golden Visa serves the same purpose but is specifically tied to the Indonesian Golden Visa program. This program offers 5 to 10-year residency options to foreign investors, individuals with exceptional talent, and those seeking a second home in Indonesia.

  3. Submit all the documents to the Indonesian Immigration website
  4. The approval will be sent to you via e-mail
  5. The Golden Visa will be sent to your email and can be used to enter Indonesia.

The visa allows the spouse to stay in Indonesia for up to 10 years, subject to the applicable immigration requirements. The holder is not permitted to work and conduct a business in Indonesia under this visa, however can own a property under HGB.

Spouse (E31B)

The E31H Dependent Visa is intended for parents of a foreign national holding an Indonesian Golden Visa. It provides an immigration pathway for eligible parents to stay with their family member in Indonesia, subject to the applicable requirements.

General Requirements for a Dependent Golden Visa

  • The foreigner must have a passport with at east 6 months validity for the planned stay.
  • Documents such as a marriage certificate or birth certificate are required to prove the relationship with the Golden Visa holder.
  • The Golden Visa holder or sponsor must show they can financially support the dependent, including proof of funds in a bank account if required.
  • The dependent must obtain the correct immigration stay permit based on the approved visa.
