Student Visa Indonesia

About

An Indonesia Student Visa is required for foreign students who wish to continue their education there.

The Indonesian Student Visa is a broad word, which comprises various distinct permissions and visas. International students must obtain study permission, an admission visa, and a residence permit in order to enrol in a school in Indonesia.

Entry visas are only good for up to six months, while residence permits are only valid for a year and need to be renewed every year until you finish your programme.

  • have been invited by a university in Indonesia.
