I was married for more than 10 years with a WNI .. We got divorced .. 20 months ago ...
What will be the consequence if I report this too late?
The Law is too harsh , it is difficult to believe they will apply it if you report now , but it can happen .
I think the main point is if the one that should report in 60 days is the sponsor/guarantor or the foreigner . I see a reasonable chance that it makes more sense (in divorce case) that the Indonesian spouse (sponsor) should be the one to report , because :
a) all Immigration processes (as far as I know) requires the "sponsor letter" , which is a request to start a process (we foreigners are treated as children who cannot request anything , except for short stays or ITAS/ITAP which require investment or special skills) ;
b) after a divorce usually the couple cut all communication and so it is difficult for the foreigner to ask the ex-spouse to give the "sponsor letter" . See an example of how this may be complicated at

Both are possible if you lose the 60 days argument above .
