Remote Worker Visa (E33G)
A renewable permit for people working remotely for a foreign employer, no Indonesian sponsor required.
The facts, not the fine print.
What it actually is.
The E33G, sometimes called the digital nomad visa, is a limited stay permit for foreign nationals working remotely for a company registered outside Indonesia. It runs one year at a time, renewable up to five times to a maximum of six years, multiple entry, and permits family under their own permits. No Indonesian sponsor required, but the income has to come from abroad and must clear specific thresholds.
