The route to a residence permit in Indonesia runs through setting up a company with foreign capital. That takes at least two people - a director and a commissioner.

How the residence permit works

A company with foreign capital is set up in roughly two working weeks. You need at least two people to open it - a director and a commissioner.

  • The registered address can be virtual - it is valid for 1 year, after which you renew it or switch to a permanent one.
  • Once the company's constitutional documents are issued, the process for the 2-year investor KITAS starts - it takes around two weeks.

We will help you register the company and obtain the investor KITAS for your situation - we cover it all on a free consultation.
