The E31A Visa is issued to foreign nationals who are married to Indonesian citizens and wish to reside in Indonesia. This visa permits long-term stay in Bali, although it does not grant the right to work.
The E31A Visa allows you to enter Indonesia multiple times and stay for an extended period. You can renew the visa, as long as you continue to meet the renewal conditions. The E31A Visa can lead to permanent residency (KITAP) if you meet the required criteria in the future.
