Golden Visa in Indonesia (Bali)

A long-term permission to stay for foreign nationals who invest substantial sums in the Indonesian economy. The residence permit is issued on entry, and there is no need to arrange it separately at an immigration office. The visa suits someone setting up a company, a director or commissioner of a corporate investor, and someone who simply places capital in local assets. The holder manages their investments, runs the enterprise they have set up and brings close relatives with them.

Visa term

A permission to stay of 5 or 10 years depending on the amount invested.

Processing time

5 working days from the day the payment is received.
