Why Choose East Islands for Your Visa Extension?
Navigating visa extensions in Indonesia just got a little more complicated. As of May 28, 2025, a new immigration regulation (Circular Letter No. IMI-417.GR.01.01) requires all visa extensions and KITAS applications to include a mandatory in-person photo and interview session at your local immigration office. While this might sound stressful, it doesn’t have to be, not when you have East Islands by your side.
We understand that dealing with immigration can be confusing, time-consuming, and frustrating, especially with new rules now in effect. That’s why we’ve expanded our visa services to make the entire process smooth, simple, and stress-free for you.
What’s New with Indonesian Visas in 2025?
Here’s a quick breakdown of the updated regulation:
✅ Photo and interview session is now mandatory for all visa extensions and KITAS applications
✅ You must attend the appointment at the same immigration office where you submit your application
✅ Applications need to be made through the immigration office that covers your current place of residence
✅ The rule applies to both online and in-person applications
So, what does that mean for you? It means you’ll need to plan ahead and show up in person — but you don’t have to do it alone.
