Looking for advice on Visas!

Welcome on Expat.com Lucy

thanks Yud;)

Hi Lucy, i hope someone could answer your queries as i was relocated to Jakarta for a year and for Singaporean i do not need visa and i could stay in Jakarta for 30days. Was wondering any one know if there's a limit to the days i can been in Indonesia for a period of time or so long i leave and re-enter indonesia every 30days it will do the job.

30 day VOA is extendible for 30 days.
You could do that 3 times but have to leave the country on a visa run after each 60 days.

yes it's nearly 6 of 1 half dozen of the other. There is a certain psychological inertia to be overcome with any reason is. the sense is that you're being kicked out of the country with no guarantee of ever returning. Of course, that's not the case. for sure you'll be back, within a matter of hours. but it does tend mess up your work and play rhythms, unless u've got a good mate in Sing or Bangkok waiting and then its great. to avoid the feeling of being kicked out of Indo every 60 days (or less) get the visitor visa and do the extensions. if you pay an agent (and he doesn't totally suck) then the whole thing is hassle free. just pay around a million a month or whatever he's asking and you're sorted. if your agent is good then he'll have lined up for you another agent on the Singapore side of things so that when you do have to drop by your embassy in Sing/Bangkok it's also a simple matter of paid money rather than wasted time
