A KITAS E33G is extended for another year and does not require leaving the country. That is the main difference between residence status and visit visas: no 60-day segments to count and no visa runs to plan.
The extension is IDR 12,000,000 all-in per year, government fees inside.
Price
| What we do | Status validity | All-in price | Departure needed |
|---|---|---|---|
| Extend a valid E33G | 1 year | IDR 12,000,000 | no |
| Move onto E33G from a C1 | 1 year | IDR 16,000,000 | no, direct conversion |
| Move onto E33G from an eVOA | 1 year | IDR 16,000,000 | no, via a bridging visa |
Converting onshore costs IDR 16,000,000 whichever visa you start from: the figure covers the interim permit, the filing and the status itself. The mechanics differ — from a C1 the conversion is direct, from an eVOA it only works through a bridging visa. Extending an existing status is cheaper because no interim permit is involved.
When to start
A month before the current status expires. The formal condition is that at least 30 days must remain on the KITAS, otherwise it is too late to file.
Important: an expired KITAS cannot be extended. The status has to be closed through EPO and a new one arranged from scratch — longer and more expensive than extending.
What you will need
- A valid passport with at least 6 months left
- A personal photo
- Your address in Indonesia
- An employment contract with a company abroad
- Proof of income from USD 60,000 a year
Document requirements for an E33G are stricter than for visit visas. Message our consultant — we will go through your case in detail and say what is missing.
Biometrics are mandatory
Since June 2025 every extension requires you in person: a photograph, fingerprints and a short interview.
Everything else — documents, filing, fees, tracking — is ours. Offices in Bali: Denpasar, Ngurah Rai (Jimbaran) and Singaraja.
Gili, Lombok, Nusa Penida: no need to fly to Bali
Extensions are filed online, so where you are staying does not affect the application. We handle clients on Gili, Lombok and Nusa Penida, and in Jakarta and Surabaya, exactly as on Bali.
The only part tied to a location is biometrics: you attend the office covering your area. Nusa Penida has no office of its own, so people travel to Denpasar.
How the extension works
We check your case
We look at the visa type, expiry date and extensions used, and say straight away if extending is not possible.
We prepare and file
We assemble the package, submit, pay the fees and follow it to a decision.
You attend biometrics
We tell you the office, date and time. About half an hour.
You get the approval
It arrives as a notification. We set a reminder for the next deadline.
Renewal timeline: what happens when
| When | What happens |
|---|---|
| 2 months before | We check your passport, contract and income statements for the past year — leaving time to add anything missing |
| 1 month before | We file the application. This is the sweet spot: room for biometrics and the immigration decision |
| No later than 30 days before | The last safe filing point. After that you risk running out of time and closing the status through EPO |
| After filing | Biometrics at the immigration office for your area, then the decision and notification |
What changed this year — tell us before filing
A renewal is not a copy of last year's application. Immigration re-checks the basis of the status, so any change is best discussed in advance:
- New employer or client — you need a new contract with a foreign company
- Annual income came in below the USD 60,000 threshold — let us look at options before filing, not after a refusal
- New passport — the status has to be transferred to the new document, otherwise the data will not match
- Moved house — we update the address, which also decides your biometrics office
If the E33G no longer fits your situation, we will find another status — for example Second Home or the investor KITAS — without leaving the country where that is possible.
Frequently asked questions
Is it true that an E33G cannot be extended and must be closed through EPO?
No — this is a common misconception, and both claims still circulate online. A valid E33G is extended for another year inside the country, without leaving and without closing the status. EPO applies to a different case: closing a KITAS for good, or when the deadline has already passed and there is nothing left to extend.
How much does an E33G extension cost?
IDR 12,000,000 all-in for a year, with government fees included.
Do I need to leave the country to extend?
No. Extending a valid E33G happens inside Indonesia. Leaving is only needed when the status has already lapsed and a new one is being arranged.
What does it cost to move onto an E33G from an eVOA or C1?
IDR 16,000,000 all-in, and the price is the same on both routes. It covers the interim permit, the filing and the status itself. Only the mechanics differ: from a C1 the conversion is direct, while from an eVOA it runs through a bridging visa, because no direct route exists.
When should I start the extension?
A month before the current KITAS expires. At least 30 days must remain on the status — later than that is too late to file.
What if I miss the deadline?
An expired KITAS cannot be extended: the status has to be closed via EPO and a new one arranged from scratch, which takes longer and costs more. We set a reminder as soon as the status is issued.
