Types of Visa

1. Visa on Arrival (VoA)
   If your country is listed as one that grants visas on arrival, you can apply for one shortly after you arrive in Indonesia. This visa allows you to stay within the country for 30 days and may be extended in person at the local immigration office for 1 (one) further 30-day stays.
2. Visit Visa (VKSB)
   You can apply for a Visit Visa to the Indonesian Embassy or Consulates in your country, or the guarantor (OIA UGM) could apply to Indonesian Immigration Office in Jakarta. This visa allows you to stay within the country up to 60 days and may be extended up to 4 (four) times which add another 30-day stays for each extension.

   There are two types of this visa that you can apply for according to your purpose and how frequent will you come in, which are:

   • Single Entry
   • Multiple Entry
3. Limited Stay Permit (ITAS)
   This type of visa is suitable for international students or scholars who wish to come to Indonesia for a longer period of stay. The students are suggested to apply for VITAS, which will be converted to Limited Stay Permit (ITAS) once you arrive in Indonesia. International students who wish to study in UGM will need VITAS 316 for study purpose. The ITAS can also be extended, suggestively one month before the expiry date.

   Additionally, ITAS holders are required to apply for EPO (Exit Only Permit) before leaving Indonesia which will inactivate your ITAS. You need to apply for EPO by yourself at the Immigration Office where you are registered to be processed prior to your departure date.
