Indonesia’s immigration authorities had issued 1,274 Golden Visas as of May 18, linked to investment realization of IDR 52.1 trillion. The Golden Visa allows foreigners to stay in Indonesia for five to 10 years and covers categories including investors, second-home visa holders, former Indonesian citizens, and their descendants.
According to the source, the Golden Visa is already operating as a long-term immigration route rather than merely a proposed program, with permits valid for five to 10 years. For people planning a move, this can provide a basis for longer-term residence through investment-related and other eligible categories instead of repeated short-term extensions. The development is most relevant to investors, wealthier applicants, former Indonesian citizens, and people of Indonesian descent. It is worth examining for anyone considering a long-term relocation and able to meet the requirements of a qualifying category, but the issuance figures do not change ordinary tourist or employment routes.
