We recommend one always to follow the law when driving in Indonesia. This includes wearing an SNI-certified helmet, having a valid driver's license, and registration.
If you get caught without a helmet, stay calm, pay the fine then wear a helmet next time. This is just cringe...

@revolutia@nuicemedia Ex WNIs already qualify for a Permanent Stay Permit (ITAP), without the Rp 2B in the bank requirement. This has been the law since 2011 (UU 6, 2011), and has not been changed in UU Ciptaker (UU 11, 2020), which created the Second Home category.
@nuicemedia Ex-WNIs already qualify for a Permanent Stay Permit (ITAP), which does not require Rp 2B in the bank. See the current Pasal 54.d as updated in UU Ciptaker (No 11, 2020).
@DickShearman@BaliUpdateEd@travelfish The circular from DitJenIm says "wajib". This may change🤷♀️
However, from a legal standpoint it is consistent: In the latest Omnibus Law (UU CIPTAKER) there is no longer a retirement ITAS/P category, only a second home category, which requires the Rp 2B proof of funds.
🚨Attention Retirement ITAS/P holders:
Since the retirement category has been rolled into the second home category, Immigration has ordered that those be converted to Second Home ITAS/P.
This ITAS/P requires proof of funds of Rp 2B (~USD 130k)...👇
(1/n)
The Proof of Funds in the amount of a minimum of Rp 2B can be either:
1) Personal funds at a state-owned bank
2) A "luxury" category property in Indonesia
These requirements come into effect 60 days after the circular is released (Oct 25, 2022), so by Dec 24th 2022.
