    Quarantine back to 7 days starting December

    What do you guys think at the moment? Will the hotel qurantine be abolished soon? As someone wrote here already, most of the countries in South East Asia do not demand a 5-7 days quarantine in a hotel anymore. And besides, the Moto GP event will take place in Indonesia soon (middle of March as...

    Quarantine back to 7 days starting December

    Yes, I agree that hotel quarantine will have only very small contribution to keeping the numbers low since the virus is already spreading anyway. A few more cases that come from abroad probably would have only small impact so that it would make more sense to focus on other strategies, actions...

    Quarantine back to 7 days starting December

    No, me neither. But combined with the fact that our infection is more than two weeks ago now and no symptoms anymore, I highly doubt that we are still infectious. So, I am a bit worried that we would be tested positive when entering Indonesia in March although the infection will be more than...

    Quarantine back to 7 days starting December

    Oh, really? My wife and I just recovered from a corona infection (no symptoms anymore). We are still in Europe and we are planning to go back to Indonesia in March. If it is true that you can continue to test positive on a PCR weeks after the infection, my fear is now that the PCR test that...

    Quarantine back to 7 days starting December

    Thanks for the information. I read it. But I could not find a regulation regarding babys or children. Does anyone know where to find information whether double-vaccinated parents entering Indonesia with an unvaccinated baby have to be in quarantine for 5 days or 7 days?

    So, double vaccinated parents with unvaccinated baby = still 7 days quarantine although the baby is not allowed to get a vaccine?

    Subsidized Houses - are there disadvantages?

    Hi, I heard from a friend that his wife and he lived in a subsidized house (I think it is called subsidi in Indonesia) for a while for rent and that the house was offered to his wife (WNI). She did not buy it because they were not looking for a house to buy at that moment. But the price was...

    Buying a used car - what is to be considered

    Thank you so much for sharing your opinion and experience. Very much appreciated. After reading this I think it might be better not to buy a used car. Do you know if it makes a difference whether the car is registered on the foreigner or the Indonesian spouse (regarding tax, insurance or or...

    Buying a used car - what is to be considered

    Hi, in case we go back to Indonesia, my wife and I think about buying a used car. Since both of us never bought or owned a car in Indonesia before, we try to get a clearer picture of the possibilities and the risks we should take into consideration. Every now and then, I heard from other expats...

    183 day tax residence rule

    Thank you for the information. I guess that regulation is meant for foreigners working for a non-Indonesian company and that are sent to Indonesia for working and transferring knowledge in Indonesia? So, for example, someone who is tax resident in Indonesia and who works abroad for a...

    Air Asia starting to cancel.

    No, I did not receive that message. I am really confused... Did it come by email? I am in Europe at the moment. I think it makes no sense for me to send documents to Malaysia as hard copy for money that I might never get back from them...so, I guess my money is just lost? Or is there anything...

    Air Asia starting to cancel.

    I booked two flights last year. Both cancelled...probably not enough demand due to covid crisis. Air Asia promised me that they would add the amount I paid to my Air Asia credit account and I could use this amount within the next two years. Now I tried to book a flight. But at the payment...

    How much Indonesian Income tax is everyone paying

    Thanks for the overview. In my homeland children can hand in their own tax declaration. So, they have their own tax allowance for example. Is that possible in Indonesia as well? Or would the income of children always be added to the income and tax declaration of the parents? In my homeland it...

    How do you guys invest?

    Good to know, thanks. And does the tax office accept the proof/document of a bank from another country? I mean, if you live in Indonesia and you are taxable there, I assume you would have to pay taxes in Indonesia on capital gains that arise if the custodian bank is based in Europe or so. I...
