Hi,
I know this is a mine field and confusing but can anybody tell me if you have to maintain a KITAS if you have an ITAP?
My situation is Ive lived in Indonesia for over 5 years, married to an Indonesian but work offshore. I have always used visa on arrival. Its worked for me as Im 1 month on 1 month off for work.
Was thinking to start application for an ITAP but Immigration said I would need a KITAS and have to renwew it each year even if I have/get an ITAP. Im dealing with Makassar Immigration so they can tend be behind the times.
I dont want to work in Indonesia so cost and hassel of maintaining a KITAS seems to make the ITAP pointless for my situation.
Regards
Ken
