Index E23Y — Digital Sector Expert Visa (Index E23Y)

The Digital Sector Expert Visa (Index E23Y) is a temporary stay permit tailored for foreign professionals possessing specialized skills in the digital and technology industries. As Indonesia continues to expand its digital economy, this visa serves as a critical tool for attracting international experts who can contribute to the country's technological advancement, software development, and digital infrastructure projects. It is designed for individuals who are either employed by Indonesian firms or are working on specific digital projects that require high-level expertise not readily available in the local labor market.

This visa is for technology professionals, including software engineers, data scientists, and digital transformation consultants, who intend to work legally in Indonesia. The application process emphasizes the applicant's professional qualifications, requiring proof of relevant education or significant industry experience. By facilitating the entry of these experts, the government aims to foster knowledge transfer and innovation within the local digital ecosystem. Holders are expected to maintain compliance with their employment agreements and Indonesian immigration laws throughout their stay.
