    EV in Indonesia

    SAN FRANCISCO 2023 - Tesla customers have sued the electric car manufacturer because they feel forced to pay high prices for repairs and maintenance of their cars. Tesla has a monopoly on the replacement parts needed for maintenance and repair work. The long waiting times also bother complainants.

    How old is your dad? Will he drive by himself? Is he more into comfort or more the sporty cars?

    For sure ... you don't need to do an EPO (and leave the country), unless you change jobs or company.

    New customs regulation, only 5kg of processed food allowed per person?

    I saw on FB some .. or rather a lot of questions regarding Kitas/Kitap holders, if they also have to pay this tax. And if not (that's the case, indeed) if they have to apply for exemption or just show the kitas/kitap card.

    What Identification/Licenses that Foreigners need in Indonesia?

    You need a 'surat pindah' from him, not a domicili letter. If he doesn't want to give you a surat pindah, go to the 'ketua RT/RW' in Karangasem. And where you live now, ask the owner of the bulding for a domicili surat. With the domilcili surat, you then go to the dukcapil in Badung to register.

    What Identification/Licenses that Foreigners need in Indonesia?

    You have to arrange for a surat pindah, because your name will be cancelled in the systems of Ducapil in Karangasem. With the surat pindah and letter of dominicil you can register at ducapil Badung. That's the way it is done .. like in many other countries too.

    Did you solve your problem? I just checked PayDo ... more than 170+ countries supported, including Indonesia. You can open an online IBAN bank account, but the fee is 10 euro per month. Isn't it rather expensive, just for a IBAN bank account online? See also this review...

    Huh? Are we talking about the same thing? Bunq started in 2012. It's a Dutch fintech and neobank licensed in the Netherlands. See https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bunq

    Interesting! According to Bunq's terms & conditions that should not be possible. Did you open an account in France prior to opening an account in HKG and Bali? Wayan can try to open an account in Indonesia with his local HP-number.

    Signing up for an account, the app wil only work in EEA countries as it asks for a telephone number.
