Which Visa Is Right For You?

Bali Visa Checker

Select your nationality to see all visa options available to you for visiting or living in Bali, Indonesia.

In our experience helping over 500 entrepreneurs relocate to Bali, one of the most common path’s is forming a PT PMA company paired with an Investor KITAS (E28A).

According to Indonesia’s Investment Coordinating Board (BKPM, 2025), foreign direct investment in Bali grew 18.6% year-over-year, reflecting Indonesia’s increasingly welcoming business environment for foreign entrepreneurs.

We’ve processed visas for clients from over 30 countries, such as Australia, the United States, the United Kingdom, Germany, and Singapore. According to the Indonesian Ministry of Immigration (2025), the country processed over 12 million visa applications following the new simplified classification system — and we guide our clients through every step of that system.

FAQ

The Questions Every Expat Asks First

Which visa do I need to live in Bali long-term?

It depends on your situation. Investors get an E28A KITAS (2 years, renewable). Workers get E23 (1–2 years, employer-sponsored). Retirees 60+ with a $50K deposit get E33F. Remote workers can use the new E33G nomad KITAS. Use the visa checker above to match in 30 seconds.

Foreigners cannot own freehold land directly, but you can hold leasehold (typically 25–30 years, extendable) or own freehold via your own PT PMA company. We structure both correctly — and we audit any villa deal you bring us before you sign.

25–50M IDR for formation, depending on sector and licensing scope. The 10B IDR (~$640K) capital is a paper requirement — we explain how that works and what you actually need to deposit. Plus 1.5–3M IDR/month for ongoing accounting.

Retirement KITAS: 6–10 days. Investor KITAS: 14–20 days. Work KITAS: 60–90 days (employer-sponsored is the slowest). Our average is 15% faster than the official immigration timelines.

No. Almost all of it can be done remotely — we operate on the new fully-online e-Visa system. You only need to be in Indonesia for the biometrics step (1 visit, ~30 minutes). We coordinate the timing with your travel plans and offer free airport pickup.

Yes. We quote a single flat fee per service that includes government fees, agent fees, translations, and notary. Surprise add-ons only arise when you have failed to disclose all information to us and government wants additional time/fees to fix (this can be previous failed visa attempts, improper/incomplete filings or paper work from other agents  etc). The only items quoted separately are USD government fees (e.g., the $1,200 for Work KITAS) and the IDR 10B PT PMA paper capital.
