Second Home: Bali as Your Second Home
Second Home is Indonesia’s longest residence status for individuals: a permit for 5–10 years at once, with no annual renewals. Instead of an employer or a business, the basis is proof of funds. For those who have chosen Bali seriously and long-term.

FAQ
Can I work on a Second Home permit?
It is not a work status: employment in Indonesia requires a separate permit. Remote work for foreign companies is a configuration question — let’s discuss in a consultation.
Does my family get status with me?
Yes, spouse and children join via linked statuses for the same horizon.
Why is it better than yearly KITAS?
One filing instead of five to ten: less bureaucracy, fewer payments, no renewal-miss risk.
