Passport & Identity Rules
Every foreigner entering Indonesia must possess a valid passport with at least 6 months of remaining validity for standard entry. For KITAS/KITAP applications, this requirement is often extended to 18-30 months depending on the specific residency permit sought.
Proof of Financial Stability
Eligibility rules mandate that applicants must demonstrate sufficient funds for their stay. For standard Visit Visas, this is typically USD 2,000 in a personal bank account. High-priority categories like the 'Golden Visa' require significantly higher investment or deposit amounts.
Good Conduct & Legal Standing
Applicants must not be on the international 'wanted' lists or have a criminal record that would pose a threat to Indonesian society. Certain visa types require a 'Police Record Check' (SKCK) or an equivalent document from the applicant's home country.
Strictly Prohibited Activities
A major rule of eligibility is the 'Purpose of Visit' compliance. Foreigners on tourist or family visas are strictly prohibited from engaging in any form of employment or paid work. Violators face immediate deportation and entry bans ('Prekal' list).
The Exclusion List (Prekal)
Eligibility is automatically denied to individuals who have previously violated Indonesian immigration laws, those with unpaid overstay fines, or individuals who are currently under a 'Deportation Order'. Being on the Prekal list remains a permanent bar to entry unless a formal appeal is successful.
Health & Vaccination Protocols
While many pandemic-era restrictions have been lifted, eligibility may still depend on the submission of certain health declarations or proof of insurance covering medical costs in Indonesia, as specified by current Ministry of Health guidelines.
