Investor KITAS Indonesia: When Will You Need One?

If you are a foreign investor who plans to hire foreign experts to support your investment, you must consider securing investor KITAS Indonesia.

After your business is fully ready, the annual work permit fee for foreign investors with an Indonesian Investor KITAS is IDR 60 million, or about USD 4,000.

There are two types of investor KITAS or investment visas in Indonesia: Index 313, which allows investors to stay in the country for one year, and Index 314, which has two years of validity. Both allow its holder to enter and leave the country multiple times.

Can You Work Under An Indonesian Investor KITAS?

According to the Ministry of Investment of Indonesia (BKPM), a company’s director with an investor KITAS is eligible to work in the country. Still, they have to meet certain requirements, such as:

  • All tasks handled by the director shall fulfill the scope of the company’s business activities.
  • The company provides equal opportunities to all Indonesians willing to work.

However, a different situation may apply to a company commissioner. According to the Ministry of Manpower, a commissioner can work with an investor KITAS, but this specific position has a minimal role. If you wish to have a very active role in the company, we highly recommend you be the main director.
