Mixed-nationality families to reunite as Indonesia relaxes visa policy


JAKARTA (The Jakarta Post/ANN): After months of being prevented from returning to Indonesia because of entry restrictions, foreign members of mixed-nationality families abroad can now reunite with their families in Indonesia thanks to a recent change in visa policy.

The Law and Human Rights Ministry’s immigration office announced on Monday (Sept 14) that it would allow foreign spouses and children of mixed-nationality marriages living abroad to apply for a limited stay visa for family reunification (VITAS 317) to enter Indonesia.
