The hidden costs agents don’t mention
DPKK skill fund: every work KITAS carries USD 100/month payable up front (USD 1,200 for a year). If an agent’s work-KITAS quote looks cheap, this is usually missing.
MERP re-entry permit: leave Indonesia without one and your KITAS dies at the border. Bundled in modern ITAS fees but verify it’s included.
EPO on exit: closing a KITAS properly costs ~IDR 100,000 — skipping it can block your next visa.
Overstay: IDR 1,000,000 per day, no exceptions, cash at the airport. Two days late = more than your original visa.
When paying a lawyer beats a visa agent
For a simple VOA extension, an agent is fine. Use a licensed law firm when: your stay involves property or a company (visa type affects what you can legally own — see company setup), you’ve had a refusal or overstay, or you’re combining family + work + investor permits. A wrong visa type discovered during a property deed signing can kill the transaction.
