Digital Nomad & Residency - Indonesia

The E33G Remote Worker Visa permits a one-year stay (used to enter within 90 days of issue) for foreigners working remotely for employers established outside Indonesia; no Indonesian sponsor/guarantor is required and applications are filed online.

Applicants must show a bank statement proving salary/income of at least US$60,000 per year and hold an employment contract with a company established outside Indonesian territory; holders may not work for or be paid by Indonesian companies or clients.

A 5- or 10-year multi-entry stay permit for non-work activities (investment, tourism, retirement) requiring proof of funds of about IDR 2 billion (~US$130,000) in an Indonesian account or equivalent; allows family sponsorship.

Launched September 2023 under Permenkumham No. 22/2023, the Golden Visa grants 5- or 10-year residency; individual investors qualify with US$350,000 (5-yr) or US$700,000 (10-yr) in government bonds/shares/deposits, with higher thresholds for company founders and corporate investors.

For investment tied to the new capital city Nusantara (IKN), Golden Visa company-establishment thresholds are lowered to US$5 million (5-yr) and US$10 million (10-yr) to attract foreign capital to the project.

All these routes sit under Permenkumham No. 22 of 2023 (amended by No. 11 of 2024) and are processed through the official eVisa system; from October 2025 all arrivals, including E33G holders, must file a digital arrival declaration before boarding.
