- Soon after that, the student will receive documents that confirm their legal status as a student in Indonesia.
Re-entry permit
Since the Student Visa (KITAS) is NOT for multiply entry purposes, if you need to leave Indonesia before finishing your study at UPH you must apply an exit permit to immigration office or UPH International Affairs Office. Two types of exit permit available with different Fees:
- SERP (Single Re-Entry Permit)One time exit and re-entry permit within 90 days.
- MERP (Multiple Re-Entry Permit)Multiple exit and re-entry permit within 180 days
Exit Permit (Required to apply at the end of your study period)
After the completion of the study, the student must return all the documents to the Immigration Office along with the Fees. The Immigration Office will then issue EPO (Exit Permit Only) stamp, and by this EPO student may legally leave Indonesia.
