If You Want to Travel Abroad: These are 12 Types of Visa in Indonesia

1. Tourist Visit Visa / Tourist Visa

It is a type of visa for someone who wants to travel abroad. The validity period and requirements for applying for this visa vary by the destination country. With this visa, you will be allowed to enter the tourist destination country. But keep in mind, this visa must be applied long before the departure date because this type of visa is one of the most frequently applied for by Indonesians.

2. Family Visit Visa

Family Visiting Visa is a type of visa for those of you who want to visit your family in a country. This type of visa is valid for 90 days or 3 months. Like a tourist visit visa, you must apply for this visa in advance before the date of departure. Don't forget to attach a letter of invitation from your family in the destination country and a statement that you will be the responsibility of your family in that country.

3. Transit Visa

A transit visa is valid for those of you who transit in a country before continuing your journey to your destination country. The first type is the Airport Transit Visa, which means that holders of this type of visa are prohibited from leaving the airport area. Meanwhile, the second type, namely the Transit Visa, allows the visa holder to leave the airport and enjoy travel in the transit country for a maximum of 5 days.

4. Visa on Arrival

Unlike other types of visas, this visa is a type of visa that is made upon arrival in the destination country. This visa can be made at the airport or port where we arrive. Keep in mind, this type of visa is only valid in certain countries.

This visa is intended for those of you who will become employees of a company overseas.

As the name implies, this type of visa is specifically for students studying abroad. Making this visa is quite easy as long as we have pocketed a school permit from the educational institution we are aiming for. This visa will be valid for the duration of education including school holidays.

11. Student Exchange Visa

Apart from a study visa, this student exchange visa is also specifically for students who wish to exchange students. Making this type of visa is usually assisted by institutions that carry out student exchange programs.

12. Exit Visa
