ONSHORE VISA EXTENSION · SINCE APRIL 2024

Extend Your Stay in Indonesia by 60 Days — Without Leaving

The Bridging Visa lets travelers on a VOA, EVOA, C1/211A, C2, D1, D2 or D12 visa — and current KITAS holders — stay another 60 days onshore while they sort out their next move.

Who Can Apply?

Two kinds of travelers use the Bridging Visa, for two different reasons.

1

🧳 Current visa holders extending their stay

  • Holding a VOA, EVOA, C1/211A, C2, D1, D2 or D12 visa and want 60 more days without exiting Indonesia.
  • Within 29 days of issuance you may (not must) start a KITAS application onshore — Investor, Student, Work, Nomad or Family Dependent.
  • As of March 2026, Nomad KITAS can also be processed onshore. Only the Second Home Visa still needs an offshore process.
2

🔁 Current KITAS holders switching or closing out

  • Formally closes your existing KITAS — the same effect as an EPO, with no separate EPO filing needed.
  • During the first 29 days you can apply for a different KITAS type — not the one you just closed.
  • Skip the new KITAS and it still works as an exit-ready 60-day extension, but you must leave before it expires.

Why Choose the Bridging Visa

🏝️ Stay longer without leaving

No visa run, no flight out and back in — your 60 days start from the day the Bridging Visa is issued, not from your old visa's expiry date.

💰 Save money and time

Skip the cost and hassle of international travel just to reset your visa clock.
