Looking for a retirement or second-home visa? Indonesia has long-stay categories of that kind, but this guide covers the remote-work route only. See other countries' guides
Indonesia, at your own pace.
Indonesia groups several long-stay categories under a shared second-home label, but the remote worker permit stands apart from the rest: it asks for proof of income and a work agreement with a company established outside Indonesia, not for property or a fund deposit.
When rules change mid-way, the date your application is filed is what often decides which rules apply to you. Where are you right now?
Pick by how you live
1 route, grouped by what Indonesia's system asks of you day to day — not by which visa is most talked about. Every figure below is what Immimaps has verified against Indonesia's official programme rules.
Your income comes from employers or clients outside the country. You don't want a local employer, and you don't need one.
Most of these sums are shown, not spent.
On most remote-work and retirement routes, the figure is proof of means — it sits in your own account until it's checked, and nothing is transferred. Routes where money genuinely moves are marked below.
route asks you to show a balance or income — once it's checked, it stays yours.
routes place capital that is exposed until the hold period or conditions are met.
What keeping the visa actually asks of you
Counted from each route's own rules. Some routes lead to permanent residence or citizenship and some don't; the route cards below say which.
Pick a route, see the real commitment
Every official figure below is what Immimaps has verified for that route against Indonesia's official programme rules — not a marketing minimum. Service fees are what independent firms publish for the route, shown only once five or more are on file.
Made for people who work for a company registered outside Indonesia and want to live there on that foreign income, with no sponsor, property or deposit required.
What each route costs, stage by stage
Added up from the official figures on file for each route — split into money spent for good, money locked and returned later, and money shown but never transferred. Not a modelled estimate.
