Golden visa for an important figure in sports

If indeed the granting of a Golden Visa to Fabio is serious, then he will become the second Golden Visa holder in the field of sports after Shin Tae Yong.

South Korean coach of the Indonesian national team, Shin Tae-yong, received a golden visa facility granted by President Joko Widodo on Thursday, July 25, 2024.

The granting of the golden visa is the first time the Indonesian government has done so. This means that the national team football coach became the first person to get the facility after it was launched.

Foreigners who obtain a Golden Visa from Indonesia can get various exclusive benefits, one of which is a longer period of stay.
Golden Visa holders also have the convenience of leaving and entering Indonesia, without the need to apply for a Limited Stay Permit (ITAS) to the immigration office.
