On 19 June 2014, The Directorate General of Immigration issued
Circular Letter No. IMI-1118.GR.01.11 of 2014 on Granting Re-entry
Permits for New or Renewal Applications for Temporary Residence
Permits and Permanent Residence Permits.
The Circular Letter has two main points:
- all immigration offices must process applications for re-entry
permits simultaneously with applications for new or the renewal of
Temporary Residence Permits,
Permanent Residence Permits, and Limited Aquatic Permits (Izin
Tinggal Terbatas Perairan); and
- the term of validity of re-entry permits (Izin Masuk
Kembali).
Immigration offices will no longer accept applications for
single trip re-entry permits. However, re-entry permits –
including single trip re-entry permits – issued before the
issuance of the Circular Letter of 19 June 2014 will be
recognized.
