Indonesia is a well-loved hotspot for remote workers. Why is remote work in Indonesia so desired?
As far as infrastructure, the WiFi in Indonesia is generally suitable in major cities for remote work. Like many countries, the more remote you go the more difficult it is to find reliable internet connection, but this won’t be a big problem for the majority of experienced remote workers.
In June 2022 the government of Indonesia announced an aggressive remote worker visa program. The digital nomad visa in Indonesia is valid for 5 years (one of the longest digital nomad visas globally) and offers its foreign guests the ability to work in Indonesia tax-free for the duration of the visa, including in Bali, one of the most desirable locations in Indonesia. Income for those working on an Indonesia digital nomad visa must be foreign-sourced and proof of clientele must be provided as part of the application process.
For those who want to work in Indonesia remotely for an Indonesian company, or for companies who want to hire local or foreign staff, the digital nomad visa wouldn’t apply properly. In those cases, there are other options, such as partnering with a local hiring company like Horizons which can take care of all employment formalities, including visa assistance, for those who want to hire employees to do remote work in Indonesia.
Indonesia is consistently a top choice for employees who want to do remote work. Remote work in Indonesia is an attractive option for good reason. The tropical climate, wonderful nature, low cost of living, and digital nomad communities make it a good option for remote work.
