"I think this is good progress. We are getting better and so are my expectations for the next period. The digitalization of services that we have implemented is quite effective with online visa applications through evisa.imigrasi.go.id where users are connected to autogates at major airports," explained the Director General of Immigration, Silmy Karim on Monday, July 15 2024.
Silmy also explained that this is an implementation of the function of facilitating community welfare development to support the ease of doing business ecosystem in the field of immigration permits. Visa services are a pioneer in public services in Indonesia in facilitating the payment of state revenues online directly from abroad using credit cards.
"We are focused on improving digital-based public services. We are also preparing infrastructure at crossings and integrating systems with immigration databases. We want a seamless experience, easy and fast immigration service experience that can be felt by foreigners who will come to Indonesia, of course without ignoring the element of selective policy," concluded Silmy.
