Single-Entry Pre-Investment Business Visa (C12)
A single-entry visa for investors making an initial, focused trip to prepare an investment in Indonesia.
Overview
About the Single-Entry Pre-Investment Business Visa
The C12 lets prospective investors travel once to Indonesia to carry out pre-investment activities — meeting advisors, viewing sites and preparing company formation.
Like the C2, it allows an initial 60-day stay that can be extended while you remain in the country.
