From 2026, certain long-term visas and KITAS require in-person biometric collection — a photo and fingerprints taken at an immigration office. We schedule and prepare every applicant so the appointment is smooth and stress-free.
As part of Indonesia's wider move toward modern, digital immigration, 2026 introduces a mandatory biometric data collection step for certain long-term visas and KITAS. Affected applicants must attend in person to have their photograph taken and their fingerprints recorded at an immigration office.
The requirement does not apply to every visa — short-stay routes such as the eVOA are generally unaffected — but it is now a standard part of the process for many long-term permits. Where it applies, biometric capture is a condition of approval, so it cannot be skipped or postponed indefinitely.
We make compliance straightforward. We confirm whether your visa is affected, book your biometric appointment, brief you on exactly what to bring and expect, and coordinate the timing so the step slots neatly into your overall application rather than holding it up.
