Common questions
What is an RPTKA?
Rencana Penggunaan Tenaga Kerja Asing — the Foreign Manpower Utilization Plan that an Indonesian employer must get approved by the Ministry of Manpower before a foreign national starts local employment. Filings run through TKA Online.
What is DKP-TKA?
Dana Kompensasi Penggunaan Tenaga Kerja Asing — the compensation fund the employer must pay for each foreign worker. Permenaker 8/2021 sets it at US$100 per position per person per month. It is an employer obligation, not a tourist fee you buy at the airport.
Do I still need an IMTA?
Not as a standalone card. The old IMTA document was abolished; today's instrument is RPTKA approval (Pengesahan) plus the electronic notification workflow under PP 34/2021.
Can I work on a Second Home or tourist visa?
No for Second Home E33 — the Golden Visa booklet states it is not eligible to work. A tourist/visit stamp is not RPTKA approval. Local hire needs manpower approval, DKP-TKA payment by the employer, and a matching work-class stay.
Can a foreigner be an HR manager in Indonesia?
No. Kepmenaker 349/2019 closes 18 positions to foreign workers — all of them personnel / HR / industrial-relations / career-admin roles, including Human Resources Manager and Personnel Director. The open-position annex is a different instrument (Kepmenaker 228/2019).
