Digital Nomad or Entrepreneur Visa Options for Lombok in 2025 by Indoned

For Digital Nomads: Second Home Visa & Remote Worker Options

If you’re earning abroad and want to enjoy island life in Lombok without dealing with Indonesian tax or business licensing—there’s good news.

Second Home Visa (KITAS)

  • Ideal for: Remote workers, retirees, investors with sufficient savings.
  • Stay duration: 5 or 10 years.
  • Requirement: Proof of funds (IDR 2 billion in an Indonesian bank) or proof of property ownership under your name.
  • Benefit: Legal long-term stay without starting a business.

Why it’s popular:

  • No local employment required.
  • Ideal for those working with international clients or freelancing online.
  • You can live in Lombok legally while enjoying a tax-friendly structure.

For Entrepreneurs: Investor KITAS & PT PMA Setup

If you’re ready to go beyond passive income and start a real business in Lombok, the Investor KITAS tied to a PT PMA (foreign-owned company) is your best path.

Investor KITAS

  • Ideal for: Foreigners who own shares in a PT PMA.
  • Stay duration: 1 or 2 years, renewable.
  • Minimum investment: IDR 10 billion capital requirement (for company), and min. IDR 1 billion personal investment to qualify for the visa.
  • Benefit: Full legal working rights in your own company.

Why it’s strategic:

  • Access to local business licenses.
  • Ability to sponsor other visas (for staff or family).
  • Operate in sectors like hospitality, wellness, eco-tourism, or property development.

What’s Changing in 2025?

Indonesia is tightening visa policies to better define between “staycation” and “business activity.” If you’re earning money from within Indonesia, using the wrong visa could result in fines, blacklisting, or deportation. Lombok’s growing economy—especially in tourism, villas, and sustainable businesses—means immigration is paying more attention. Getting the right visa is no longer optional.

Your Lombok Move Starts with the Right Visa

Whether you’re sipping coffee while coding on the beach, or opening a beachfront café—visa compliance is your foundation. Lombok is booming, and foreign presence is welcome—but only if you do it right.

Get expert help setting up the right visa, company structure, and property purchase strategy—before making your move.
