How it works

Your permit first, then theirs

Your sponsor secures your IMTA and KITAS first. Then each dependent gets a visa approval letter (Telex) to collect their visa at an embassy or, for some nationalities, on arrival.

In Bali every family member completes biometrics before the KITAS cards and MERPs are issued.
