Paul from Indonesia shared it on April 22, 2026 from our guide How to Renew Your KITAS in Indonesia: 2026 Process, Documents, and What Happens If You're Late

Accidently let my passport expire. Hardly used it simply forgot the expiry date

Got it renewed but new one is 19 days after expiry date, big issue it is linked to my Kitap, therfore, my Kitap expired same date as passport expiry date.

Appointment with immigration, special person. Long interview. Lots of paperwork which will in turn be submitted to a higher power for evaluation,

Potential deportation. will find out in a few days.

Be diligent with this stuff they take it very seriously. I got a big wake up call.
