FAQ

Frequently asked questions

What income do I need for the Indonesian remote worker visa?

At least USD 60,000 a year from employers or clients outside Indonesia, shown with a contract, payslips or invoices, plus personal bank statements for the last three months with a balance of at least USD 2,000. Immigration can update the thresholds, so we confirm the current figures before you apply.

One year, with multiple entries. It cannot be extended inside Indonesia. To stay longer you apply for a new E33G before the current one ends.
Possibly. If you are present in Indonesia for more than 183 days in a 12 month period, or you are considered to reside here, you become an Indonesian tax resident and are taxed on worldwide income, subject to any tax treaty with your home country. The permit itself does not change the tax rules.
