Dual Nationality Affidavit
Children of a mixed Indonesian and foreign marriage can hold two nationalities until adulthood. The affidavit is what lets them enter and leave Indonesia smoothly in the meantime.
Vue d'ensemble
About the dual nationality affidavit
Indonesia allows limited dual nationality for children born to one Indonesian and one foreign parent. They keep both nationalities until they turn eighteen and then choose one, usually within a set window after that.
The affidavit, often called the affidavit for dual nationality children, is registered with immigration so the child can travel on their foreign passport without the usual visa or KITAS requirements while they are still a minor.
