Overview

Temporary stay permit for foreign students participating in approved student exchange programs with Indonesian educational institutions.

The Student Exchange Visa (Index E30F) is a specialized temporary stay permit designed for foreign nationals coming to Indonesia to participate in formal educational programs or exchange initiatives. This visa is intended for students enrolled in recognized academic institutions, ranging from secondary schools to universities, who wish to immerse themselves in the Indonesian educational system. It provides a legal framework for international students to reside in the country for the duration of their studies, facilitating cultural exchange and academic development while ensuring compliance with national immigration regulations.

This visa is specifically for individuals who have secured a placement at an Indonesian educational institution. It requires sponsorship from either the host institution or an authorized Indonesian guarantor. Holders of this visa are granted the benefits of a residence permit, allowing them to live in Indonesia for the duration of their program, which can be extended. While it permits participation in educational activities, it strictly prohibits the holder from engaging in employment or receiving wages from Indonesian companies, ensuring the focus remains on academic pursuits.
