Frequently asked questions
Yes, designated categories under the Golden Visa program authorize foreign nationals to found businesses, employ local talent, and conduct active commerce. However, direct local employment as a regular corporate hire on the island may require an additional work permit (IMTA). Our legal desk will guide you in structured business incorporation.
Yes, however, this requires delicate legal compliance. The chosen off-plan development must be fully clear of zoning issues (featuring verified PBG/SLF licenses) and acquired from highly reputable developers. Visa submission is processed once standard verification documents of deposit transfers or legally binding transaction steps are certified.
One of the standout benefits of both the Golden Visa and Second Home initiatives is the lack of strict physical presence requirements in Indonesia. You are entirely free to reside abroad, provided that your underlying investment assets (bank deposit or active real estate titles) remain fully maintained for the duration of the status.
Acquiring mortgages from local commercial banks is exceptionally difficult for foreign nationals without permanent resident status (KITAP). Furthermore, the required investment funds utilized to qualify for long-term residency must consist entirely of the applicant's paid-up equity and show clear origins free of domestic debt obligations.
No, Golden Visa and Second Home programs do not grant a direct or automated pathway to acquiring Indonesian citizenship. Crucially, Indonesia does not recognize dual citizenship under its basic law. While naturalization is theoretically possible after multiple consecutive years under a permanent KITAP, requirements are extremely strict (such as language tests) and physical asset ownership offers no guarantees.
