WORK VISA / WORK KITAS
What is a Work Visa or Work KITAS ?
A Work Visa, also known as a Work KITAS (Limited Stay Permit Card), is an official permit granted to foreign nationals who wish to work in Indonesia for a certain period. This visa allows the holder to live and work legally in Indonesia for a specific duration, usually one year, with the possibility of extension.
Main Uses of Work Visa / Work KITAS
- As a Limited Stay Permit :
The Work KITAS provides limited stay permission in Indonesia for work purposes. This permit typically lasts for one year and can be extended up to a maximum of five years. - As Legal Work Authorization :
Holders of a Work KITAS have the legal authorization to work in Indonesia according to the position and company specified in the permit. Without a Work KITAS, foreign nationals are not allowed to work legally in Indonesia. The Work KITAS can be extended before its expiration, and this renewal process involves re-verification of documents and approval from immigration authorities.
Benefits of a Work KITAS
- Legality and Security :
Provides legality and security for foreign nationals to work in Indonesia without the risk of deportation. - Ease of Mobility :
Facilitates the mobility of foreign workers who wish to work and live in Indonesia for a certain period. - Legal Compliance :
Ensures compliance with Indonesian legal and immigration regulations, thereby preventing legal issues in the future.
Process of Obtaining a Work KITAS
- Identify a Sponsor :
A company or entity in Indonesia will be responsible for acting as your sponsor. The sponsor guarantees the approval of your work permit. - KITAS Process :
Prepare your passport and other supporting documents for review and verification. Once the verification process is complete, the documents will be submitted to the immigration office for KITAS application. If all documents are complete and compliant, the KITAS will be issued.
With a Work KITAS, foreign nationals can work legally in Indonesia and enjoy the benefits of living in the country while adhering to all applicable regulations.
