Visa C22

The legal way decoded.

The complete 2026 guide to the only legal path for interning in Indonesia. Written by people who have processed 370+ of them.

What is the C22 visa?

The C22 (officially Visa Kunjungan Magang) is Indonesia's official visa for foreign interns. It lets you legally work at an Indonesian company for up to 175 days in the country (internships up to 6 months). Without it, interning in Bali is illegal and risks deportation. It's included in our 990€ package — we handle it entirely.

Documents required

Passport in perfect condition, valid at least 12 months after your start date (scan of page 4)

Round-trip plane tickets — immigration requires them to issue the visa

🛂 Passport — conditions to meet▾

Your passport must be clean

Indonesian immigration is very strict: no wet, flooded, torn or damaged pages. A passport with water damage, tears or loose pages can be refused and the visa denied. If yours is damaged, renew it before you apply.

Examples of accepted and rejected passport page photos (3 ✅/❌ pairs)
  1. Make sure the photo is sharp, in focus, and not ghosted.
  2. Make sure the photo is not covered, cropped or folded and not blurry.

Extension

C22 can be extended once for up to 180 additional days. Request must be submitted 15 days before expiration, with the sponsor's agreement. In practice, extensions are routine if the company cooperates.

🚨

Important: no exit from Indonesia

The C22 is a single-entry visa. If you leave Indonesian territory — even for a day trip to Singapore or elsewhere — your visa is immediately cancelled upon exit. You would need to apply for a new visa from scratch to return.

Plan all travel within Indonesia during your internship: Lombok, Java, Flores, Raja Ampat... International travel must happen before your internship starts or after it ends.
