What is KITAS?

KITAS (Kartu Izin Tinggal Terbatas) is the Temporary Stay Permit required for any foreigner working legally in Indonesia. It is tied to a sponsoring Indonesian employer and must be renewed annually or biennially.

The process involves multiple government agencies — the Ministry of Manpower (IMTA), Directorate General of Immigration, and Disnaker. Our experienced team manages all submissions, appointments, and follow-ups on your behalf.

KITAS Application: Key Stages

01Week 1

Company Eligibility Check

We verify that your sponsor company holds a valid SIUP, NIB, and is registered with Disnaker as an authorised employer of foreign nationals.

02Week 1–2

IMTA Work Permit Application

We file the IMTA (Izin Menggunakan Tenaga Kerja Asing) application with the Ministry of Manpower online system. This is the primary work authorisation.

03Week 2–3

Telex Visa & Entry

Once IMTA is approved, we apply for a Telex Visa (limited stay visa) so you can enter Indonesia on the correct visa type for KITAS conversion.

04Week 3–6

Immigration Submission & KITAS Issuance

We submit the full dossier to Immigration, attend all appointments, and collect your KITAS card and MERP (Multiple Re-Entry Permit) upon approval.

05Week 6–8

STM / Police Report

Final step: you register at your local police station (STM) for address reporting, required by law for all KITAS holders. We guide you through this process.

What You Get with KITAS

Legal Work Status: Fully authorised to work for your sponsoring Indonesian employer with zero ambiguity.
Multiple Re-Entry: MERP included — travel in and out of Indonesia freely without losing your permit status.
Family Sponsorship: Sponsor your spouse and dependent children under a Family KITAS at no extra immigration cost.
Path to KITAP: After 5 consecutive years on KITAS, you become eligible for KITAP — the Permanent Stay Permit.
