    Ex Wni to be allowed to work, open up business and own property

    Yes, you are correct. My KITAS to KITAP conversion is based on the fact that I have WNI spouse. As far as I know, nowhere does my Ex status came to play. So I wouldn't read too much into this unless they release new PP to support the new wording int the UU

    Getting surat keterangan kehilangan kewarganegaraan

    Yes, the declaration from the overseas consulate that you have surrendered your passport is the most important letter for this application. The other thing that I got caught up before is where to submit the physical documents. You are supposed to hand it in to the AHU cikini office rather than...

    MERP Extension Online

    Hello all, I heard that MERP extension now can be done online (well at least part of it). Has anyone here had any experience with this? Cheers.

    People’s Reactions When You’ve Revealed That You’re An “Ex”

    There is a field of psychological study on a subject called 'reverse culture shock'. This applies mostly to returning expats or in our case, ex wni. A lot of it has something to do with how one's expectation doesn't match with the experience. Hence, it often hits ppl harder than the normal...

    how to come home to indonesia during covid as an ex (kinda) wni?

    If you have taken citizenship overseas, I'd say don't even attempt to enter Indo with Indo passport. Last I heard from A consulate overseas that Indo is trying to synchronise all the id cards (sim, passports, ktp, kk) into one central database which can be accessed by relevant authorities local...

    Dual citizenship, how likely is it?

    Hi Nimbus, thanks for the thought. Do know how much has this idea being introduced/pushed at the government level? I guess for me (and also for many of us) it is not so much the title of being citizen that matters, but having the right to live and work as a normal human being in society.

    DON'T PANIC.... well, maybe a little bit.

    haha... I can't read the tone of your message. Few months ago this would be read as sarcasm, but come the end of the pandemic, this could be the truth (of course assuming no more big waves coming) without undermining the many reported (and unreported) fatalities because of this approach, the...

    Dual citizenship, how likely is it?

    I feel you, man. I am sure many of us here are feeling the same way too.

    Dual citizenship, how likely is it?

    Agree re. economic rights. Which I think it should be the case for spouse sponsored too. This would be in line with most other countries out there?

    Dual citizenship, how likely is it?

    Thanks all, looks like it is going to be a while before anything substantial happen. Meanwhile, perhaps we can keep this thread open to post any recent update in relation to this matter.

    Dual citizenship, how likely is it?

    Are we wishing upon a star? I know a while back there was some sort of push by the diaspora community to get the discussion rolling in the parliement. I know this seems very unlikely, but part of me as an ex is hoping that at least there is some sort of concession for ex like us, no? ;)

    People’s Reactions When You’ve Revealed That You’re An “Ex”

    Just to add to this list "The people who think you live a glamorous life". I once helped a WNI family member extending his STNK in a local samsat. Handed him my KTP Orang Asing and the other normal KTP. He automatically assumes that I am the local guy processing on behalf of the WNA. He needed...

    Visa Options for ex-WNI (Vitas, Kitas, Kitap)

    Hey Sine, Here are some of my thoughts: 1. If you are not spouse sponsored, you have two options in general, the 'normal' foreigner way or the express 'ex-wni' way. The normal way is to apply for work-sponsored KITAS for years until you are qualified to apply for KITAP. The express way is the...

    It is exactly the same for me.
