Immigration Service
Visado puente
Sometimes a new permit is not ready before the old one ends. A bridging visa keeps you legal in Indonesia during that gap.
Resumen
About the bridging visa
Immigration processing does not always line up neatly with an expiry date. When you are switching status, for example from a visit visa to a KITAS, or waiting on a renewal, a bridging permit covers the in between period so you do not fall into overstay.
It is a short term fix, not a long term plan. We use it to protect your status while the main application is finalised, then move you onto the proper permit as soon as it is issued.
