Exit Permit Only (EPO) – Who is it for and what are the benefits?

If you currently hold a temporary stay permit (KITAS) in Indonesia and plan to leave the country, change jobs, or change the type of KITAS you have, you will be required to apply for an Exit Permit Only (EPO).

Please note that when your KITAS expires, it is mandatory that you apply for the EPO.

The primary purpose of the EPO is to ensure that all immigration documents are returned to the immigration office and that you are correctly removed from the records.

When do you have to get an EPO

There are 3 occasion whereby you must obtain an EPO:

  • When you leave Indonesia and have no intention of returning
  • If you decide to change employers and work for a different company
  • If you decide to change the type of KITAS form (for example, a working KITAS to a retirement KITAS)

3 Steps to Get Your EPO in Indonesia

  • Provide all documentation relevant to the current KITAS, and we will verify to ensure a successful application.
  • Passport and supporting documents will be issued to the Immigration Office, which will process and end the KITAS.
  • Once the EPO is applied for, the applicant will have a maximum of 7 days to leave Indonesia.
