The Indonesia Golden Visa is a government-backed residency-by-investment programme that grants foreign nationals the right to live, work, and invest in Indonesia for 5 or 10 years. It is administered by the Directorate General of Immigration and does not require a local sponsor.
The programme is open to citizens of all countries. Individual applicants need a qualifying investment starting from USD 350,000. Corporate applicants need business investment from USD 2.5 million. There are no age restrictions or educational requirements.
Available in 5-year and 10-year tiers depending on investment size. Both are renewable upon maintaining the qualifying investment.
Yes. Spouse and dependent children under 18 can be included. Family members receive the same visa duration and residency rights. Additional government fees apply per dependent.
The Golden Visa is a residency permit, not citizenship. However, continuous legal residence can contribute toward naturalisation requirements (5+ consecutive years). Indonesia does not recognise dual citizenship for adults.
Government bonds (SBN/ORI), real estate, IDX-listed equities, and corporate establishment via PT PMA. Each has distinct risk profiles and return potential.
USD 350,000 for individuals (5-year visa), USD 700,000 for 10-year. Corporate: USD 2.5 million (5-year) and USD 5 million (10-year). Amounts must be maintained throughout the visa period.
Yes. Government bonds yield 6–7%, real estate generates rental income, equities provide dividends and appreciation. Your investment is a productive asset, not a donation.
Temporary market fluctuations don’t immediately jeopardize your visa. Immigration conducts periodic reviews, not real-time monitoring. We recommend maintaining a buffer above the minimum.
You can restructure (e.g., switch from bonds to real estate) as long as the total stays above the threshold. Complete liquidation could result in visa cancellation.
Typically 60–90 days: document preparation (2–3 weeks), investment (2–4 weeks), immigration processing (4–6 weeks), and visa stamping (1 week).
Valid passport (24+ months validity), photographs, investment proof, source-of-funds documentation, criminal record certificate (apostilled), health insurance, and completed application form. Family applications need marriage and birth certificates.
Most can be done remotely. You must visit once for biometric capture (fingerprints and photo) at the immigration office — a 2–3 day visit that we coordinate.
Government fees range from IDR 10–15 million depending on visa duration. Dependents incur additional reduced fees. We provide an itemized breakdown in our proposal.
Yes. You can conduct business, manage investments, and serve as director/commissioner of your own company. Employment by a third-party may require additional permits.
Residing 183+ days/year makes you an Indonesian tax resident (worldwide income). Indonesia has 70+ DTAs to prevent double taxation. Investment returns have favorable final withholding rates (10% on bonds/dividends, 0.1% on equity gains).
