Second Home Visa Indonesia — KITAS E33

The deposit doesn’t grow for the 10-year option

It’s intuitive to assume a longer visa requires a bigger commitment — in practice the threshold is identical.

VISA DURATION

REQUIRED DEPOSIT

NOTE

5 years

REQUIRED DEPOSIT≈$130,000

What the process consists of

The deposit is held in an account in the applicant’s own name and earns interest — it is not a non-refundable government contribution, but a genuine personal bank deposit.

How the process runs

Opening an account at an Indonesian state bank

Mandiri, BNI, BRI, or BTN — opened in the applicant’s own name.

Depositing IDR2 billion (≈$130,000)

Or arranging a Hak Pakai right-of-use over property from $1M.

Choosing the visa duration — 5 or 10 years

The deposit threshold does not change based on this choice.

Filing for the KITAS E33

With proof of the deposit or property.

Transitioning to permanent stay (KITAP)

Available after 3 years of residence, while the financial requirement is maintained.

A good fit if

You have $130,000 for a deposit at an Indonesian state bank that stays your property and earns interest.

You work remotely for a foreign employer or run a business outside Indonesia — this is permitted.

You want to take the 10-year visa outright at no extra cost — the threshold doesn’t rise compared to the 5-year option.

You have a spouse, children, or parents — they join on dependent permits with no separate financial requirement.

A poor fit if

You plan to work for an Indonesian company or earn income from sources within Indonesia — this is explicitly prohibited under the visa’s terms.

You expected a higher deposit for the 10-year visa — the threshold is identical for both 5 and 10 years, with no escalation.

Your deposit is below $130,000 or your property is worth less than $1,000,000 — no lower threshold exists.

You’re interested in a larger investment programme via government bonds/shares — the site covers a separate Golden Visa programme (from $350,000) with a different structure.

Frequent questions

Is it true the deposit is the same for a 5-year and a 10-year visa?

Yes — per the available data, the financial requirement is the same amount (≈$130,000) regardless of the chosen visa duration, with no escalation for the longer option.

Is the deposit refunded?

The deposit stays the applicant’s property in an account in their own name and earns interest — per the available data, this is a personal bank deposit rather than a non-refundable government contribution, though it must be maintained for the visa’s full duration.

Can I work while on this visa?

Work for Indonesian companies and income from sources within Indonesia is prohibited; per the available data, remote work for a foreign employer or a business based outside Indonesia is permitted.

When is permanent stay available?

Per the available data, transitioning to KITAP (permanent stay) is available after 3 years of residence on the Second Home Visa.

How does this differ from Indonesia’s Golden Visa?

The Golden Visa (a separate programme on the site) requires from $350,000 via government bonds, shares, or deposits and does not give the same personal-use right over the funds; the Second Home Visa requires a deposit specifically in the applicant’s own name, earning interest.

Does the visa cover family members?

Per the available data, yes — a spouse, children (under 18, or under 25 if full-time students), and parents can join on dependent permits of the same duration with no separate financial requirement.
