About Service Visa and Diplomatic Visa Indonesia
In Indonesia, both “Visa Diplomatik” and “Visa Dinas” are official travel documents issued to foreign nationals who need to enter the country for specific purposes.
A diplomatic Visa (Visa Diplomatik) is granted to foreign nationals holding diplomatic passports who are entering Indonesia to perform diplomatic duties. It allows them to stay in Indonesia for the duration of their diplomatic assignment.
Meanwhile, a Service Visa (Visa Dinas) is issued to foreign nationals with service passports or other travel documents who are entering Indonesia to carry out official duties that are not diplomatic in nature. This could include government officials, representatives of international organisations, or individuals on official business.
