Document background
The Business Invitation Letter for Visa is an essential document in Indonesian business practice, required when foreign business partners, clients, or associates need to visit Indonesia for business purposes. This document is mandated by Indonesian immigration authorities and must comply with Law No. 6 of 2011 on Immigration and related regulations. The letter serves multiple purposes: it validates the legitimate business purpose of the visit, provides necessary details for immigration processing, and demonstrates the Indonesian company's willingness to take responsibility for the visitor during their stay. The document is particularly important as it helps distinguish business visits from activities requiring work permits, ensuring compliance with both immigration and employment regulations. It's commonly used for activities such as business meetings, contract negotiations, factory inspections, or technical consultations, and must be written on company letterhead with official signatures and stamps to be considered valid by Indonesian authorities.
