E23 – Working KITAS

Rp2,000,000Rp26,500,000

The E23 – Working KITAS is a residence permit that allows you to earn a salary and work legally in an Indonesian company as an employee. This residence permit is sponsored by the company that hires you and is generally covered by the employer. We are unable to sponsor this residence permit.

The Working KITAS is divided into two parts:
1. The residence permit (KITAS)
2. The work permit (Work Permit) – $100 per month.

These two elements are inseparable. The work permit is associated with a specific region of Indonesia (e.g., Bali). Therefore, it is important to adhere to the region specified on your work permit, which is determined by the company’s address.

To obtain this residence permit, the company must employ a minimum of 10 Indonesians. In Indonesia, the rule is 1 foreign employee for every 10 local employees.

The Working KITAS allows you to freely enter and exit the country during its validity period. You can also sponsor your relatives with a Family KITAS.

Duration and Validity
The Working KITAS is a residence permit valid for 1 or 2 years:
– 1-year validity: Up to 5 extensions of 1 year each.
– 2-year validity: Up to 2 extensions of 2 years each.
– Maximum duration: The permit can be valid for a total of 6 years.

The duration of the KITAS and work permit can be adjusted based on your length of stay in Indonesia.
