Silver Hair Visa Indonesia – Who is it for and what are the benefits

The Silver Hair Visa, recently introduced by Indonesian Immigration, is specifically designed to cater to retirement-age tourists seeking a peaceful retirement in Indonesia. To be eligible for this visa, applicants must be at least 60 years of age and deposit funds into a designated state-owned bank account to meet the required financial threshold.

This golden visa category aims to attract tourists seeking extended stays in Indonesia, allowing them to remain in the country for up to 5 years. Whether it’s an individual investment or a corporate venture, holders of the Silver Hair Visa may freely depart and re-enter Indonesia during the validity of their visa.

Foreigners can use this VISA for:

After the Visa is issued, you must report accounts in state-owned banks to the immigration office within 90 days after the date of entry. Also, you must be financially sufficient during your stay in Indonesia. This type of visa targets to increase Indonesia’s investing power, thus USD 50,000 must be invested in a state-owned bank account. 

However, for foreigners who cannot meet the requirements to invest in a state-owned bank account, we have another option you can consider applying, namely Retirement KITAS for foreigners who are at least 60 years old.
