MOVING TO INDONESIA - A FEW THINGS TO KEEP IN MIND








Buddy,
If you consider moving to Indonesia due to job relocation or other reasons… You are so fortunate I must say.  Many people out there have no chance like you do as the Indonesian authority has limited Foreign people  to fill some job position in Indonesia. Anyway,There are a few things to keep in mind if you would like this colorful and exotic country to become your new home.

1. Be Well Prepared

Inadequate planning can lead to a more emotional stress. Many people find moving domestically an emotional stress event, moving to a new country creates an even more challenging transition.
For that reason, you need to do prepare a checklist regarding duties to accomplish your move.
Being realistic about what you can do yourself and seeking assistance for tasks that can be performed by others would be the main element to a successful move.


2. Ensuring Legal Requirement

It could be a confusing process to navigate through Indonesian bureaucracy. And I think you have to know that you cannot apply for a work visa on your own. It should certainly be obtained by your future employer. However, let read on the work permit checklist for you to be prepared: 

1.    foreign applicants papers needed

Copy of Foreigner’s Passport (Full page – Front Cover until Back Cover).
Curriculum Vitae and References
Copy of Diploma / Post Graduate Certificate
Photo with red color background ( passport foto)
Proof of living address during staying in Indonesia

2.    foreign applicants who takes family


Copy of the wife and children’s passport.
Copy of the marriage certificate.
Copy of the children birth certificates.


In regards with the work permit process, I will further explain in another  page.

3. Familiarization Trip

For those who intends to reside in Indonesia the opportunity to explore alternatives for housing and schooling as well as to better acquaint themselves with the living conditions, lifestyle and the availability of local services and goods are the chances to discover alternate option to familiarize trip
With the knowledge gained future residents can return home and be better prepared to plan the move before they actually start packing.

If you don't have the company or personal resources to set up a well-organized familiarization trip, you may consider using the relocation services; most of them will probably tailor-make orientation trips around town to meet your particular needs.

cheers
