Visa C22B - Internship Visa (60 Days) Extension

Our C22B Internship Visa Service provides a dedicated solution for students and professionals seeking to undertake an internship in Indonesia. The C22B visa is a Single-Entry Visit Visa with a stay permit of up to 60 days (two months). This visa is primarily aimed at recent graduates or young professionals seeking practical experience in a real-world Indonesian workplace.Our service includes securing the mandatory Indonesian local sponsor/guarantor, document verification, translation support (if needed), preparation of the application package, and submission to the Directorate General of Immigration's e-Visa system. This ensures you receive your electronic visa (e-Visa) directly via email, allowing for a seamless arrival in Indonesia. Key Characteristics & RequirementsThe visa is officially designated as Visa Kunjungan Index C22B (Single-Entry Visit Visa for Company Internship). Its primary purpose is to carry out activities related to an unpaid internship to develop skills and talent.Sponsorship for the C22B is mandatory and must come from an Indonesian legal entity (a company, institution, or government agency) that hosts the internship program.The e-Visa allows the student to enter Indonesia within 90 days from its date of issuance. The Stay Permit (ITK) is valid for a maximum of 60 consecutive days from the date of entry.The core restriction of the C22B is that it does not permit any form of paid employment. Holders are strictly prohibited from receiving a salary, wages, or any similar remuneration from individuals or corporations in Indonesia. The sponsoring company (a local Indonesian entity or a PT PMA) is responsible for the intern's compliance and must provide a formal Internship Contract as part of the visa application to the Directorate General of Immigration. Required documents typically include the applicant's passport, an internship agreement, and proof of sufficient funds (minimum USD $2,000 in a bank statement) to support the stay.Breakdown of Key FeaturesLegal Status for Internship: The primary benefit of the C22B is that it provides the legal immigration basis to participate in a professional company internship, specifically to develop skills and talent at a company, office, or workplace in Indonesia. This protects the holder from serious immigration violations for conducting unpaid training activities.Single Entry Only: This is a CRUCIAL DISTINCTION. The C22B is a Single-Entry Visa. If the holder leaves Indonesia for any reason (even a short trip), the visa is automatically voided, and they must apply for a completely new visa to re-enter the country.Non-Working Status: This is a fundamental limitation. The C22B visa strictly forbids the holder from receiving a salary, wages, rewards, or any form of compensation from the host company or any other source in Indonesia. The activity must be purely for training/skill development purposes, which is a crucial distinction from a formal work visa.Extension Potential: When the C22B is initially issued for a 60-day stay permit, it can potentially be extended twice (two times) for an additional 60 days each (for a total stay of up to 180 days or six months). Each extension is subject to renewed sponsorship, approval by the local Immigration Office, and the fulfillment of a mandatory biometric session (photo and fingerprinting) at the local Immigration Office.Permitted Activities: The holder is permitted to conduct activities directly related to their company internship/skill development and limited activities related to tourism or visiting friends/family, provided they comply with all Indonesian laws and immigration regulations.
