Indonesia Dependent Visa KITAS E31C
- Share:
If you stay in Indonesia to join a family member who holds a KITAS (Limited Stay Permit) in Indonesia, the Dependent Visa is the ideal solution. A Dependent KITAS (Visa e31h) in Indonesia is available for the foreign nationals as spouses and children of the primary KITAS holder. With this visa, foreign nationals can access to various benefits when residing in Indonesia, such as opening bank accounts and registering a mobile phone.
The length of the Dependent Visa will be linked with the terms on the primary KITAS, for example, if the primary KITAS is for one year, the Dependent KITAS will be for the same longevity.
For those married to an Indonesian citizen, the Spouse KITAS may be more appropriate. This limited stay visa offers additional rights and longer-term stability, making it a preferred option for foreign spouses building a life in Indonesia.

- Reside legally in Indonesia as a dependent of a primary KITAS holder.
- Access education (such as enrolling in schools or universities).

FAQ
Can I start the Visa application before I enter Indonesia?
Yes, you can. You can apply for Dependent Visa before you enter the country and we can send you your E-Visa. For your permit to be official you will need to do a biometric session either at a local immigration office in Indonesia where you reside or at the airport.
If I do not wish to extend my KITAS, what should I do?
To terminate your KITAS you must apply for an EPO (Exit Permit Only), whereby your work permit will be terminated. The EPO is very quick and generally takes a few days. Once your EPO stamp is issued, you will need to leave the country within 7 days.
If you have already left Indonesia, you will need to apply for a ERP (Exit Re-entry Permit).
At what age can children apply for a Dependent Visa?
Children under the age of 18 years old who are unmarried are eligible to apply for a Dependent Visa (KITAS) if their parent holds a valid work visa (KITAS) and work permit (IMTA).
