Who this is for
Three visas for living in Indonesia, resting on an income, a deposit or a property.
Retiring on a pension or an income
E33F: USD 3,000 a month and a sponsor. One year at a time, extendable, family can join.
Later life, with a deposit
E33E, silver hair: USD 50,000 at a state-owned bank and USD 3,000 a month income. Five years.
A second home

Bringing family
A second home holder’s spouse or child has an E31 visa, on five or ten year terms to match.
What we do, and what we do not.
Both lists go into your written scope, word for word.
What we do
- Name the visa that matches your activity
- Check your documents against the current rules
- Prepare and lodge the application
- Track it and tell you when its status changes
- Handle extensions and renewals for visas we lodge
- Work in English, Bahasa Indonesia or Chinese
- Refund our service fee if an application we filed is refused
What we do not do
- Guarantee an outcome. Immigration decides
- Give legal advice. If you need a lawyer, we say so
- Act as a government agency. You can apply directly through official channels
- Issue documents we are not authorised to issue
- Advise on tax residency or company accounting
Four steps, each one in writing.
- 01
Initial assessment
Send your nationality, plan and dates. We name the visa that fits. The first assessment is free.
- 02
Scope and price in writing
Before you pay: the document list, your price, a timing estimate and what we will not do.
- 03
Document check
We check each document against the current rules. You fix anything flagged before we lodge.
- 04
Lodging and follow up
We lodge, track and pass on any request from immigration. Extensions go through the same contact.
What you will usually need
You apply with a commitment; the deposit or purchase follows within 90 days of arrival.
Applicant
- Passport valid for at least six months
- Recent colour photograph, CV and itinerary
- Proof of income of at least USD 3,000 a month, for retirement and silver hair
The commitment
- Deposit of USD 50,000 at a state-owned bank, for silver hair
- Deposit of USD 130,000 or a property worth USD 1,000,000, for a second home
- Guarantee letter from the sponsor, for retirement
The Indonesian side
- Sponsor's letterhead, stamp and immigration e-visa account
- Sponsor's identity card and company documents
Each visa's page has its exact list. The deposit or property is a commitment on applying and an obligation after arrival.
Timing
Gathering the evidence takes longer than the visa. After arrival, plan around the 90 day deadline.
Estimates assume a complete file. Missing immigration’s 90 day deadline cancels the permit.
Residence questions
- Which of the three should I apply for?
- Income alone is retirement; income plus USD 50,000 is silver hair; USD 130,000 or a property is a second home. Tell us what you have and we name it.
- Can I work on these visas?
- Not on retirement or silver hair. The second home visa allows work where the permit’s activities do, confirmed case by case.
- Does the deposit have to be in place before I apply?
- No. You apply with a commitment and deposit or buy within 90 days of arrival, which immigration checks.
- Can my spouse and children come?
- Yes, on their own E31 visas with you as sponsor, on terms that match yours.
- What does it cost in total?
- The visa price on its page, plus any third party costs in your quote. The deposit and property stay yours.
Tell us what you are coming here to do.
Send your nationality, plan and dates. We reply with the visa, its price and its documents.
