About Business KITAS
The Business KITAS is for business owners, investors, or company representatives who need to stay in Indonesia for business activities. It is different from the work KITAS — it is for business management, not employment as an employee.
Who it's for: Directors, shareholders, investors, or business representatives. You may need to show company registration, investment proof, business plan. The company (PT or representative office) in Indonesia typically applies. Similar to Thailand and Vietnam business visas — company documents and investment matter.
How it works: Company establishes PT or representative office → applies for Business KITAS (or investor KITAS) → you provide documents → receive approval → enter Indonesia → complete formalities. Processing typically 4–8 weeks.
Key factors: Company registration documents, investment proof (minimum amounts may apply), business plan, passport, health certificate, background check. Fees: IDR 10,000,000+ typically. Confirm on imigrasi.go.id and evisa.imigrasi.go.id.
Important: B211A Visit Visa allows short business meetings but not running a business. For business activities, Business KITAS is required.
