Retiring in Indonesia as a British citizen

Asia · the visa situation for UK citizens

As of our last check, Indonesia offers a dedicated retirement route: the Retirement KITAS (E33F); E33E Silver Hair / Golden route also available.

The income requirement is on the high side, so check carefully that your income clears it. The E33F Retirement KITAS requires proof of monthly pension or passive income of at least USD 3,000; the E33E Silver Hair route requires the same income plus a deposit. Applicants are typically 55 to 60 years or older depending on classification.

A separate Second Home Visa (E33) grants 5 to 10 years of residency but requires an IDR 2 billion (about USD 130,000) deposit in a state-owned bank or a USD 1 million property, per the official eVisa portal.

Before you act on this

Visa rules, income thresholds and processing practice change, sometimes with little notice. This page reflects what we could verify on the dates shown, for UK citizens. Indonesia does not set different rules per nationality for the standard retirement route, but the income proof format and supporting documents vary. Always confirm the current requirements with the official immigration authority or a licensed immigration adviser before making plans, and treat the linked source as the authority, not us.
