A Multiple Entry Business Visa (MEBV) grants foreign nationals the right to enter Indonesia repeatedly for business activities, subject to a cumulative stay not exceeding 180 days within the visa’s validity. Each visit will be granted 60 days of stay and is not subject to renewal.
The Multiple Entry Visit Visa allows travellers to enter Indonesia multiple times within a validity period up to 1 year , suitable for those who frequently visit Bali or Jakarta for leisure or family purposes.
This Multiple Entry Visa is ideal for professional foreigners making repeated business trips to Indonesia. Valid for up to 1 year, commonly used by those doing business in Jakarta and Bali.
Designed for foreign investors exploring business opportunities in Indonesia. Grants multiple entries over 2 years to cities like Jakarta and Bali for site visits and meetings.
The Multiple Entry Business Visa grants an initial 60-day stay in Indonesia and is extendable 2 times, resulting in a maximum stay of 180 days.
In 2025, Indonesia continues to streamline its visa regulations to support foreign investment and attract international professionals. Understanding the right visa type is essential for compliance and long-term success.
The Visa on Arrival (VoA) or e-Visa on Arriva (e-VoA) is ideal for short business visits, including attending meetings, networking events, or exploratory trips. Valid for 30 days and extendable once, VoA is available for over 90 nationalities, making it a quick-entry option for initial market research and informal engagements.
This visa is tailored for professionals entering Indonesia for specific business purposes such as attending conferences, client meetings, or feasibility studies. Valid for 60 days and extendable up to 180 days, it does not permit direct employment but is a key tool for project-based or consultancy work.
A Work KITAS (Limited Stay Permit) is issued to foreign nationals formally employed by a registered Indonesian entity. It enables legal residence and employment in Indonesia and requires a sponsorship letter, a valid job title, and approval from the Ministry of Manpower. This visa is essential for long-term expatriate assignments and skilled professionals.
The Investor KITAS is designed for foreign investors who own shares in an Indonesian local company (PT PMA). It offers stay and work rights without requiring a separate work permit (IMTA), significantly simplifying the relocation and operational setup process for investors. Minimum capital investment requirements apply, aligning with Indonesia’s focus on attracting sustainable foreign capital.
Most visa types, including VoA, business, and work visas, can be extended under certain conditions. Extensions are processed through local immigration offices and must be initiated before the visa expiry date. Regular extension policies are in place to support long-term business continuity and project completion across sectors.
