Do you have plans to work or build a business in Bali? Or are you going to work on a big project in Bali? This means that you need to have a residence permit in the form of a Bali KITAS visa so that you can stay longer in Indonesia to complete the work.
To get a KITAS, you must be sponsored by a local visa agent or the company where you will work. Companies must apply for a Temporary Stay Permit Card (KITAS).
This article will guide you through the various options for obtaining a KITAS as well as explain the process of obtaining a working KITAS visa bali.
What is a KITAS Visa Bali?
KITAS is a Limited Stay Permit Card. This card is intended for foreigners working in Indonesia so they can live in Indonesia (a kind of resident permit) and must be extended once a year. To get this card, you must have a job in Indonesia and get sponsorship from the company where you work.
Limited Stay Permit Card (KITAS) is one of the prima donna products of immigration among foreigners. With this card, you can be active in Indonesia for a longer period.
VITAS First, KITAS Later
Fastest way to obtain a KITAS is obtaining a VITAS (Limited Stay Visa). In general, visas are categorized into two, working or just living (not working). The type of KITAS will also determine the types of documents that you or the guarantor need to prepare when applying for the ITAS at the Immigration Office. The VITAS user is required to report to the immigration office and convert his visa into a Limited Stay Permit (ITAS) a maximum of 30 days after arrival.
