sunny08: hi guys..my MRP is expired last week..and i'm leaving to korea in 3 days...what will happen if i'm back to jakarta?
KuKuKaChu: dont do it
KuKuKaChu: you will cancel you KITAS
KuKuKaChu: AND you will have difficulty getting a new kitas until the old one is properly cancelled
KuKuKaChu: keep in mind that as of 2-3 months ago, you can now get 12month MEREP. finally.
sunny08: then i should run to the immigration now then...to renew my MRP?
KuKuKaChu: if you are already overseas, and the MEREP has expired, you will not be able to extend it. your kitas is cancelled!
KuKuKaChu: if you have ot yet left the country, then get the MEREP renewed asap
KuKuKaChu: alternately, you *might* be able to negotiate a single exit re-entry permit at the airport. Rp2jt is the going rate
sunny08: very expensive for the single reentry
KuKuKaChu: indeed
KuKuKaChu: but you have no choice now. immigration office is closed till next week effectively
sunny08: is it?
sunny08: * 6 months validity: IDR 600.000 * 12 months validity: IDR 1.000.000 * 24 months validity: IDR 1.750.000
sunny08: i found that on the net
KuKuKaChu: good luck
v8dave: Ku, how much is the new 1 year MERP? Can you get this at the same time as the KITAS renewal so the dates are the same?
KuKuKaChu: v8, yes! we can now get 12 month MEREP at long last!
KuKuKaChu: v8, so yes, they are now synchronised with teh KITAS
v8dave: Good. Question is! How much?
KuKuKaChu: our price atm is Rp2,4jt
v8dave: Ouch!! At least it is less than 2 times the 6 months which is saying something.
KuKuKaChu: yes, the main thing is no more 'gotchas' when your MEREP runs out
