We work with people earning from trading, freelancing, agencies, and mentorship brands — income structures that generic visa agents often get wrong.
Villa life, done properly
From leasehold contracts to Hak Pakai titles, we connect the visa decision to where and how you’ll actually live.
Which visa fits you
Five ways to legally stay in Indonesia — only one is right for your situation
Indonesia’s visa rules changed significantly over the last two years. Here’s the current picture, in plain language.
E33G Remote Worker KITAS
For traders, freelancers, and remote employees paid by clients or employers outside Indonesia. You cannot legally serve Indonesian clients on this visa.
- Duration 1 year, renewable
- Income test ~$5,000/mo
B211A Visit Visa
The easiest entry point for freelancers who aren’t ready to commit. Good for a first few months in Bali — not a legal basis for working locally.
- Duration Up to 180 days
- Best for Short stays
Second Home Visa
For people who want years in Indonesia without working locally — often paired with a qualifying villa or property purchase.
- Duration 5–10 years
- Requirement Funds or property
Investor KITAS (PT PMA)
The route for founders who want to sell to Indonesian clients, hire locally, or build a registered B2B or mentorship brand in-country.
- Duration 1–2 years, renewable
- Requirement Company setup
Not yet Decided
Multiple Entry (D12)
For those Sponsored directly by an Indonesian-registered company, Still Planning to Move or visit Indonesia
- Duration 1–2 years
- Requirement Company Sponsor
That's what the call is for
Most people qualify for more than one option. We’ll tell you which one actually matches how you earn and how long you want to stay.
Selling services, B2B, or mentorship
Want to start a business in Bali? Your visa decision comes first.
Selling coaching, running a B2B agency, or launching a mentorship brand from Indonesia isn’t the same as working remotely — and it isn’t optional to get right, since it determines whether you can legally invoice, hire, and bank in-country.
Set up a PT PMA
A foreign-owned company structure that lets you invoice both local and international clients under an Indonesian entity.
Match your KBLI business classification
Your business activity — consulting, coaching, agency services — needs the correct license category before you can operate legally.
Convert to an Investor KITAS
Once your company exists, this becomes your legal basis to live in Indonesia and run the business day to day.
Plan your banking and tax position
Local company income is taxed differently from foreign remote income — worth mapping out before you commit, not after.
Good fits for this path
- Traders or fund managers building a local advisory or B2B service
- Coaches and mentors launching a program with Indonesian clients
- Agencies wanting to hire local staff or contractors
- Anyone who wants a registered brand presence, not just a laptop and a KITAS
Villa life, not tourist life
Living well in Bali means getting the paperwork right first
A villa lease means little if your visa doesn’t match your income, or your business isn’t registered to operate here. We connect the two so your lifestyle plan and your legal status actually line up.
- Leasehold vs. Hak Pakai Foreigners can't hold freehold land, but long-term leases and right-of-use titles are workable and common.
- Second Home + property A qualifying property purchase can support the long-stay Second Home Visa route.
- Contracts worth checking Bali's long-term rental market is informal — a local legal review before signing protects you.
Common questions
Before you book the call
What visa do I need to live in Bali long-term?
It depends on how you support yourself. Remote workers and traders paid from abroad typically use the E33G Remote Worker KITAS. People settling for years without working locally often use the Second Home Visa. If you’ll run a company in Indonesia, an Investor KITAS is usually the fit.
Can I run my B2B agency or mentorship program from Bali?
Yes, in one of two ways. If your clients and income stay outside Indonesia, the E33G covers you. If you want Indonesian clients, local hires, or a registered brand, you’ll need a PT PMA and an Investor KITAS.
Can foreigners own a villa in Bali?
Not freehold, but leasehold, Hak Pakai (right-of-use), and PT PMA-held property are all workable paths — often paired with the Second Home Visa.
How long does a KITAS take to process?
Most single-entry approvals take one to two weeks, with the physical card and local reporting following after arrival. Investor and Second Home applications generally take longer due to financial documentation.
Will I pay Indonesian tax on income earned abroad?
It depends on your visa, income source, and how many days you spend in Indonesia in a rolling 12-month period. This is worth mapping out with us before you apply, not after.
