Dependent KITAS (E31E)
Residency for children and eligible family members of a primary KITAS or KITAP holder, aligned with their permit.
The facts, not the fine print.
What it actually is.
A dependent-status permit for children under eighteen and other eligible family members of a KITAS or KITAP holder. Runs for the same term as the primary permit and renews alongside it. It is the route that keeps a family together on one immigration footprint. Children can enrol in school, spouses join under their own E31B, and the paperwork stays in sync with the primary holder’s cycle.
Children under 18 of a Working KITAS, Golden Visa, or Second Home Visa holder
Adopted or step-children eligible under Indonesian family definitions
Other qualifying family members named in the primary application
Where the line sits.
It lets you
Live in Indonesia for the duration of the primary permit, renewing alongside it
Enrol in Indonesian schools, including international schools that require a KITAS
Enter and exit multiple times without secondary approval
It does not let you
Continue on the permit past the child’s eighteenth birthday. A different route is needed at that point
Work, invoice, or run a business in Indonesia. Employment requires a separately sponsored permit
Remain in status if the primary permit is cancelled or lapses. Dependent status follows the sponsor’s status

Confirm eligibility
Verify each dependent’s relationship, age, and status, and check the primary permit is eligible to sponsor them.
Prepare and file
Assemble the family documents, translations, and applications, submit through the immigration portal.
Arrival and biometrics
Coordinate arrival formalities and address registration for each dependent.
Synchronise and renew
Track the primary permit’s expiry so all family permits renew together and none lapses.
