SIM Internasional (International Driving License)

Foreigners on spouse visas are not even allowed to get BPJS unless they are on the same KK as their wife,

In my view , BPJS officer makes a mistake by allowing foreigners in that situation (see below) . This mistake may be happen because BPJS Health has a rule that a registration for Indonesians must be done for all persons listed in a KK .

From Perpres no.59 Year 2024 ABOUT HEALTH INSURANCE
Article 1
2. Participants (of BPJS Health Program) are all people, including foreigners who have worked for at least 6 months in Indonesia, who have paid Health Insurance Contributions.

and since about 2018 it has been compulsory to have separate KKs.

Do you have the rule about it ? I did a quick search but didn't find anything about how the KK should be in a mixed marriage situation .

What I know by experience is that I got a KK in 2013 separated from my Indonesian wife's KK .

UU no.23 Year 2006
Article 61
(4) KK is issued and given by the Kantor Catatan Sipil to Indonesian residents and foreigners who hold Permanent Residence Permit/ITAP.

PerMen no.108 Year 2019
Article 10
(9) ... a new KK/Family Card ... is also issued for foreigners holding ITAP ...

You can have separate or joint KK with spouse as a foreigner. In case that you have a joint one, spouse is the Head of the Family (Kepala Keluarga). You can get BPJS in that situation even if you are not working, as a dependant.

Well, not sure how that’s gonna work. I just looked at mine and it says I’m the head of the family occupation Bapak Rumah Tanggah(well it says ‘Other’ but that was what my wife told them)

You don't get a choice. The catatan sipil tells you to get (for example in S Jakarta) separate ones, and that's what you get.

I was in South Jakarta and was on joint KK.

So was I but they changed it to separate a few years ago

My WNI wife had me put on the keluarga document and am now with BPJS. I am retired and do not work.

At a Disdukcapil they have no idea what they’re doing and even if they do they change their minds every couple of years. You guys should know that by now.
