Can I work in Indonesia?
Never pay anyone for a visa or a job offer. A real employer pays the permit costs and never asks you for money.
How it works
How it works: Since 23 February 2026 banks may use foreigners only at board, executive, niche-specialist or consultant level; under 25% foreign ownership, only experts or consultants.
Before you apply: Dealing, advising and senior roles usually need a regulator's licence or approval, which checks your honesty, skills and finances. Ask if your job does.
Watch for: HR and compliance posts are closed to foreigners; the 5-year cap covers executives, specialists and experts; foreign directors and commissioners need OJK approval.
Official source: Financial Services Authority (OJK): POJK 1/2026 on foreign workers in commercial banks. Checked November 2026.
