Pre-Investment Visa (D12)
Pre-Investment Visa (D12) is intended for foreign entrepreneurs and investors wishing to explore business opportunities in Indonesia before the official formation of a company.
The D12 visa is a multiple-entry visa and lasts 1 or 2 years, and can extend stay by up to 180 days per visit (although one extension is possible, and subject to the approval of the immigration authorities and their conditions).
It is the best visa in case you intend to establish a PT PMA (a company owned by foreign investors) and require time on the ground for market research.

The Pre-Investment Visa (D12) will permit you to:
- In and out of Indonesia several times within the visa validity.

- Visit partners and suppliers, attend meetings.
- Make factory, office, or production plant inspections.
- Finalize and make business contracts.
