Moving within Indonesia as a foreigner requires more than just packing your belongings. It’s crucial to officially update your registered address with the Indonesian Immigration Office. This process, known as Mutasi Alamat (Address Mutation), is a legal requirement for all KITAS (Limited Stay Permit) and KITAP (Permanent Stay Permit) holders.
Address Mutation to Change your address in Indonesia
Mutasi Alamat KITAS/KITAP refers to the formal application process of transferring your registered address from your old residence to your new one within Indonesia. This process updates the address officially recorded on your KITAS or KITAP at the relevant Immigration Office.
Who Needs to Apply for Mutasi Alamat?
At Lets Move Indonesia, we offer two processing options:
- Standard Process: Approximately 5-6 working days.
- Express Process: Approximately 3-4 working days.
Please note these are estimated timelines and may vary depending on the specific Immigration Office and current processing volume.
Document Requirements
The required documents for Mutasi Alamat typically include:
- Surat Permohonan dari Penjamin (Sponsorship Letter from your Sponsor/Guarantor).
- Photocopy of the Sponsor/Guarantor’s KTP (Indonesian ID Card).
- Original and photocopy of your Passport.
- Original and photocopy of your KITAS/KITAP.
- Surat Keterangan Pindah Alamat dari instansi yang berwenang (Address Change Letter from the relevant local authority, e.g., local Kelurahan or RT/RW). This is a crucial document confirming your new address.
How to Change Your Address in Indonesia:
- Prepare and provide all the requirements. Lets Move Indonesia can help to navigate the right documents you need to provide to avoid the complexity.
- Submit all the documents to the Immigration office
- The approval will be sent within the timeframe
