Hello everyone! Does anyone know if I can fly domestically Jkt-Bali without my passport on hand (it will be at an embassy)? I have a KITAS and an Indonesian driving license.
Would appreciate you sharing your experience!
 
Yes you can, domestic you need a valid photo ID
Next time laminate a passport copy credit card size
 
Thank you for you reply, but what do you mean by photo id, like a scan of my passport? Because in my country we don't have national ids, we only have one national and one international passport
 
Ah alright thank you! so flying domestic does not require any biometric data, that is to say I won't have to go through one of those machines and will instead just prove my identity to an official?

Of course not. You're not leaving the country are you. You can drive to Bali.
You seem very suspiciously worried about biometric data lol.
But no you don't need your passport but you really should a laminated copy of it and your Kitas. And a proper Photo ID. That's the rules even for domestic
Or drive
 
you just never know haha! I want to eliminate every and any possibility of getting detained idk haha. the imigrasi is being quite harsh lately. But you really helped, one again thank you!

Except I do know. Nothing at all to do with Immigration. You not leaving the country. You sound incredibly suspicious. What are you so worried about. Are you sure you haven't overstayed your visa?

Why would they detain you? Are you on the run?

What a strange post.
A photocopy of your passport is usually enough for a domestic flight but nothing to do with Immigration. It's purely to confirm it's you travelling to match the ticket holder.

If you so worried take the train bus and ferry
