According to the Hong Kong " South China Morning Post" report on October 24, recently, Acting Director-General of the Indonesian Immigration Bureau, Vidodo Ekatjajana, issued the "Second Hometown Visa" policy. For foreigners who want to stay in Indonesian for more than 6 months, they can obtain 5 years of residence authority by applying for a second hometown visa. If necessary, apply for a limited residence permit or permanent residence permit. "The visa is still in the final stage and hopes to be issued in the near future or in the next few weeks."
At present, there are many remote workers such as "digital nomads" in Bali using business visa to live here for 3 to 6 months.

In fact, the first occurrence of the term "second hometown visa" was in an Indonesian government regulation in early 2021. The regulations show that the second hometown refers to an immigration measure, which grants foreigners and their families who meet certain conditions for 5 or 10 years of residence rights in the form of a limited residence visa.
Indonesian Ministry of Law and Human Rights is also conducting training, including promoting the visa product and the visa issuance and approval process to foreign countries. The Secretary of Law and Human Rights also promoted the upcoming visa policy when he visited the United States in June this year.
The South China Morning Post reported: "This special visa will be issued to rich people and investors to encourage them to invest more in Indonesia, and there are those who intend to stay in Indonesia for a longer period of time." Indonesian experts said that the visa policy will help Indonesia attract wealthy people, create more jobs for Indonesia, and even help attract investment for the construction of a new capital.
