The purpose of social visa Indonesia:

Indonesian authorities grant social visas to eligible foreigners who wish to:

  • Spending time with family or friends
  • Attending a cultural or artistic event that is not for profit
  • Taking part in a comparative study, short course, or training session
  • Participating in a non-commercial sports competition
  • Carrying out an urgent humanitarian task

Are you eligible for an Indonesia Social Visa?

The onshore social visa is valid for 30 days, whereas the offshore social visa is valid for 60 days upon the arrival date.
