Previously, the www.hukumindo.com platform has talk about "Contoh Perjanjian Konsinyasi Sederhana", "Contoh Surat Penawaran Jasa Hukum", you may read also "Contoh Surat Pernyataan Melamar CPNS" and on this occasion we will discuss about 'Indonesia Sport, Music and Art Visa, What Are They?'.
The Directorate General of Immigration issues sports visas and music and art visas. It is believed that this method can make international events more intensively held in Indonesia. The visa is for sports activities, as well as music and arts performances. Applications for sport visas and music and art visas are made online via the evisa.imigration.go.id page.[1]
"We are taking this momentum. Soon many international events will be held. In October we have MotoGP, in November we have the Coldplay Concert, the U-17 World Cup. We are simplifying the visa requirements for sports and music and art visas so that Indonesia becomes a destination country that is taken into account for sporting events. and international music," said the Director General of Immigration, Silmy Karim, quoted in a press release.[2]
Silmy added that the Directorate General of Immigration was simplifying visa application requirements for foreign athletes and artists. In the future, official athlete teams, event organizers or international artist promoters will no longer need to attach labor permits, Police Record Certificates (SKCK) or certificates of at least five years of work experience.[3]
Silmy said this step was based on the consideration that foreign athletes and artists only have activities in Indonesia for a short time. Moreover, the context of work carried out by foreign athletes and artists does not have a competitive effect on local workers. Silmy is optimistic that by simplifying these requirements, Indonesia can hold more sporting events or music performances on an international scale. Reflecting on the success of the 2018 ASIAN Games event, Silmy hopes that Indonesia will become a magnet for foreign tourists to come to watch international sports matches and music concerts in Indonesia.[4] And if you have any legal issue in Indonesia territory, contact us then, feel free in 24 hour, we will be glad to assist you.
