Index C10A — Preacher Visit Visa (Index C10A)

The Preacher Visit Visa (Index C10A) is a single-entry visa specifically designed for foreign religious figures, missionaries, and spiritual teachers invited by Indonesian religious institutions. It provides a legal framework for these individuals to enter Indonesia to deliver sermons, provide religious guidance, or participate in spiritual events. The visa is intended for those whose presence is requested by local organizations to contribute to the spiritual and community life of the country, ensuring that religious activities are conducted in a structured and authorized manner.

This visa is strictly for religious activities and does not permit the holder to engage in standard employment or receive wages from Indonesian entities, though they may receive compensation related to their preaching duties. It is valid for a stay of 60 days upon arrival and can be extended twice, each for 60 days, allowing for a maximum stay of 180 days. Applicants must be sponsored by a registered Indonesian religious foundation or institution, which is responsible for the application process via the official immigration portal.
