Within 30 days of your arrival in Indonesia with your VITAS, you have to go to the Immigration Department so that you can receive your KITAS (temporary residence permit). Although the Indonesian Directorate General of Immigration has an online facility for KITAS applications, you still have to go to the Immigration Offices in person to make the fee payment and receive the KITAS Stamp on your passport.

To apply for a student KITAS in Indonesia, you have to submit the following documents:

• your passport;

• your Letter of Acceptance;

• a Letter of Recommendation or the Certificate of Sponsorship from your university;

• a copy of of the telex visa;

• a copy of of your Study Permit;

• your CV;

• your academic reports; and

• proof of financial responsibility from your parents, legal guardians, or a sponsor during your studies.
