Retirement KITAP (Permanent Stay Permit)
- Share:
The Retirement KITAP is a 5-year visa that allows foreigners to live in Indonesia and enjoy their retirement in one of the greatest countries in the world with relative ease.
This is suitable for foreign retirees who have held a Retirement KITAS for a minimum of four years. This document remains valid for five years and offers a lifetime extension option. If you intend to travel internationally and return to Indonesia after two years, be sure to obtain a Multiple Re-entry Permit (MERP) to avoid potential difficulties and delays at Indonesian immigration upon your return.

- Stay in Indonesia after your visa expires.
- Work or be employed in Indonesia.
- Negate the financial requirements such as proof of income and health insurance.
