A Sort of Business Visa Indonesia
In Indonesia, there are two kinds of Indonesia business visa, namely:
-
Single Entry
A single-entry business visa is valid (must be used) within 90 (ninety) days from the date of issuance, the 60-days stay permit starts from the date the traveler enters Indonesia.
You can extend this kind of visa for up to 4 (four) times, 30 days for each extension, at the Immigration Offices in Indonesia. Furthermore, to extend a visa, it is mandatory to get a letter of sponsorship from an organization or an Indonesian resident. However, the approval for visa extension is in accordance with the decision of Indonesian Immigration.
-
Multiple Entry
A multiple-entry business visa is valid (must be used) within 90 (ninety) days from the date of issuance. In addition, this multiple-entry business visa can be used for 1 (one) year multiple visits to Indonesia without exceeding 60 (sixty) days for each visit.
The advantage of holding this visa is that the number of stays in the country per year is not limited. However, the amount of time you can spend is limited to 60 (sixty) days that you do not need to renew during each trip.
For instance, the multiple-entry business visa Indonesia applies for 60 days for each entry. Before the 60 days expire, you need to leave Indonesia and go back to your country. After some days, you may come back to Indonesia without renewing your visa anymore.
