Indonesia — FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Does the Golden Visa lead to an Indonesian passport?
No. It grants residence for five or ten years. Indonesia does not allow dual citizenship, so this is not a route to an Indonesian nationality.
What is the lowest-cost route?
The Second Home Visa, via a refundable deposit of about 130,000 USD (IDR 2 billion) in an Indonesian state-owned bank. The Golden Visa passive route starts at 350,000 USD in government bonds, shares or funds for five years.
Will Indonesia tax my worldwide income?
It can. Indonesia in principle taxes tax-residents on worldwide income up to 35%, though a new-resident regime may limit this to Indonesian-source income for the first four years for qualifying skilled individuals. Holding the visa does not by itself make you tax-resident, and it does not remove obligations to a country that taxes on citizenship, such as the United States.
