Dear ******
We would like to inform you about several new laws and how they may affect you in Indonesia. Immigration (UU No. 6 Tahun 2011) replaces the previous immigration act (UU No. 9 Tahun 1992).
Generally speaking these laws show a desire by the immigration department to make penalties higher for non compliance and remove police from most immigration matters. These laws are official but the supporting details have not been released yet.
The benefit of the New 2011 Regulation is that article 60 and 61 1992 are no longer in effect
UU No. 9 Tahun 1992 Article 60 (Pasal 60):
- Foreigner who work in Indonesia must report to Police Office where they reside within 30 (thirty) days counted from the stay permit issuing date, otherwise they could be sent to prison for maximum 1 year or penalty charge maximum Rp. 5.000.000.
UU No. 9 Tahun 1992 Article 61 (Pasal 61):
- Everyone who give overnight stay for Foreigner who visiting Indonesia must report to nearest police office within 24 (twenty four) hour counted from the foreigner arrival, otherwise they could be sent to prison for maximum 1 year or penalty charge maximum Rp. 5.000.000.
New Law
