How long is the validity?
If you are married to an Indonesian citizen this Visa allows you to stay for 1 year and it can be extended up to 4 times, so in total 5 years. In this case applicants can apply for KITAP after 3 years of holding a KITAS. This applies also for your kids born with your Indonesian spouse.
Instead if you hold a valid work permit you can apply for your family (can all be foreigners) using your company as a sponsor and allow them to stay as long as your permit is valid. Once you extend your work permit, also the Visa of your family can be extended.
All the Family Kitas come with multiple entries, so during the validity who hold this permit can freely enter and leave Indonesia without having to submit for a new Visa.
