Retirement Visa Application Process
Additional Information on Retirement Visa
Citizens from 24 countries can apply for the Retirement Visa Bali, allowing you to stay in Indonesia for one year, with the possibility of extending your stay for up to five years.
Important: Visa extensions are required every year, and the process starts one month before your KITAS expires. Ensure you are in Indonesia at least two weeks before your KITAS expiry to avoid complications. If you are abroad and your KITAS expires, it will be revoked, and you will be granted a tourist visa upon re-entry. To reinstate your retirement KITAS, a new application will be necessary.
The Retirement KITAS includes a multiple-entry visa, meaning you can travel in and out of Indonesia as many times as you like within a year.
Note: This visa does not permit any form of employment in Indonesia. It is purely for enjoying your retirement in this beautiful country.
