Bali and Jakarta have long been a magnet for remote workers in Indonesia. Co-working spaces in Bali dot lush landscapes, offering a stark contrast to the frenetic pace of Jakarta, with its dynamic urban environment with burgeoning tech infrastructure, diverse professional opportunities. For those interested in staying in Indonesia while working outside the country, Indonesian Immigration offers an ideal Digital Nomad Visa called Visa E33G.

The Indonesia Visa index E33G, also called the Remote Worker Visa, grants a one year temporary stay in Indonesia, facilitating remote workers to enter Indonesia and stay while working for companies based outside the country. 

This visa is perfect for experienced slow-living digital nomads who want to find a new location or prolong their current stay without impacting their work.

FAQ

Can the remote worker visa allow digital nomads to work in Indonesia?

If you stay using on arrival entry visa, you are likely able to still work outside the country. However, Visa on Arrival is one of the short term visa options that only grant up to 60 days to reside in Indonesia, so it’s more suitable for a short trip in terms of tourism and business visit.

The Remote Worker KITAS E33G is valid for a single year and cannot be renewed. To continue your stay in Indonesia, you must close your current KITAS before its expiration, leave the country, and apply for a new one.

It’s technically possible. The Remote Worker Visa is a KITAS category, letting you apply for a MERP (Multiple Exit Re-entry Permit) at the same time. For more information on the process, it is advisable to seek guidance from a professional visa consultant.

Unlike Work Visa and Investor Visa, the new Remote Worker Visa Indonesia cannot accommodate you to do commercial business in Indonesia. E33G visa holders are only authorised to work for companies registered outside of Indonesia and cannot receive income from any Indonesian entity or individual.
