Golden Visa in Indonesia

Despite the fact that the US-China trade war has slowed the global economy and had an influence on Indonesia's economy, the investment outlook in 2019 remains strong. Indonesia's economy is expected to rise at a quick pace in 2020, with a growth rate of 5.3-5.4 percent.

Furthermore, since the first quarter of 2019, investors have been investing in large projects in Indonesia, indicating a good outlook. There is little doubt that the investment climate for international investors remains favorable. The government's attempts to simplify the investment process through different policy changes, such as the Ministry of Manpower Regulation No.8/2021 on Foreign Workers, are one of the major drivers.

Foreign investors used to have to pay a costly annual charge of USD 1,200, but that is no longer the case with an Investor KITAS, as long as they meet all of the investing criteria.
