Cara Memohon Kewarganegaraan Global Indonesia (GCI)

Indonesia memperkenalkan Kewarganegaraan Global Indonesia (GCI) pada akhir November 2025 dan secara rasmi melancarkannya pada 26 Januari 2026. Nama itu kedengaran seperti pasport atau “kewarganegaraan berganda,” kan? Tetapi inilah perkara utama dari awal: GCI bukan kewarganegaraan Indonesia. Ia adalah Permit tinggal tanpa had (tarikh tamat tiada) untuk orang asing tertentu yang mempunyai ikatan erat dengan Indonesia, seperti bekas warganegara Indonesia dan keluarga mereka. Oleh itu, GCI tidak memberikan kewarganegaraan Indonesia, hak politik, atau hak mengundi.

Mengapa ini penting? Indonesia Tidak mengiktiraf kewarganegaraan berganda untuk orang dewasa. Jadi jika seseorang menjadi warganegara negara lain, mereka biasanya tidak dapat mengekalkan kewarganegaraan Indonesia juga. Di bawah undang-undang Indonesia, sekatan ini telah lama menjadi cabaran bagi diaspora, dan GCI adalah pendekatan Indonesia untuk menanganinya. GCI diadaptasi daripada visa Overseas Citizenship of India (OCI) India, tetapi tidak memberikan kedudukan atau hak undang-undang yang sama.

Dalam panduan ini, kami akan menerangkan indeks e-visa GCI (E31A/B/C dan E32E/F/G/H), siapa yang boleh memohon, keperluan rasmi, dan proses permohonan langkah demi langkah.

Jadi… apa itu GCI?

Menurut Indonesia Direktori Jeneral Imigresen (Direktorat Jenderal Imigrasi), Warga Global Indonesia (GCI) adalah dasar yang memberi “izin tinggal tetap tanpa had masa”, a Permit kediaman tetap (ITAP) tanpa had masa, bagi warganegara asing yang layak yang mempunyai ikatan darah, ikatan keluarga, ikatan sejarah, atau hubungan kuat lain ke Indonesia.

Takrif ringkas (supaya istilah-istilah tidak bercampur):

• ITAP = permit kediaman tetap (izin tinggal tetap)
• e-Visa = visa dalam talian yang anda mohon melalui sistem eVisa rasmi
• Penjamin/penaja = penjamin (diperlukan dalam beberapa kategori, bukan semua)
• Jaminan imigresen = jaminan imigresen yang boleh boleh dikembalikan, bergantung pada kategori

Secara pentadbiran, Imigresen menyatakan bahawa ia adalah pihak berkuasa pelaksana untuk GCI, dan ia menerbitkan rujukan rasmi serta panduan di portal kerajaan (.go.id). Pengarah Jeneral Imigresen adalah unit echelon-I di bawah Kementerian Imigresen dan Penjara.

Pada rasmi Imigresen “Warga Dunia Indonesia” Halaman, GCI diadili atas tuduhan diaspora dan keluarga merentas negara, dan ia menonjolkan tiga janji teras:

• tempoh penginapan tidak terhad (ITAP tanpa had masa),
• pemprosesan segera sebaik tiba, dan
• pelaporan minimum sekali setiap lima tahun—dinyata sebagai “tanpa yuran.”

Dalam amalan, “janji” menjadi nyata melalui indeks dan keperluan visa tertentu terdaftar di halaman visa rasmi. Pengumuman pelancaran Imigresen (26 Januari 2026) menambah butiran operasi utama: permohonan dihantar dalam talian melalui sistem eVisa; e-visa GCI diintegrasikan dengan pemeriksaan sempadan (autogate dan kaunter manual); pengguna autogate mesti melengkapkan “Semua Indonesia”penyataan ketibaan; dan Dalam masa 24 jam selepas memasuki Indonesia, pemegang e-Visa GCI menerima ITAP tanpa perlu melawat pejabat imigresen.

Akhirnya, sementara setiap kategori GCI menentukan Kelayakan dan syarat imigresen, apa-apa di luar imigresen (contohnya, peraturan pemilikan harta) diatur oleh peraturan berasingan dan harus disahkan secara bebas. Sumber kebenaran yang paling boleh dipercayai sentiasa adalah Halaman indeks rasmi untuk kategori visa anda.

Mengapa Indonesia mewujudkan GCI sekarang?

Indonesia telah lama terlibat dalam perdebatan awam mengenai kewarganegaraan berganda, terutamanya dalam kalangan komuniti diaspora. Reuters mengaitkan waktunya dengan kebimbangan “brain drain”: orang Indonesia berpindah ke luar negara untuk peluang yang lebih baik dan kemudian kehilangan kewarganegaraan Indonesia. Reuters juga mencatat data Imigresen yang menunjukkan bahawa hampir 4,000 rakyat Indonesia menjadi warganegara Singapura dari 2019 hingga 2022, satu angka yang dipetik oleh pegawai sebagai sebahagian daripada isu migrasi bakat yang lebih luas.

Kerajaan juga secara terbuka membandingkan GCI dengan India. Kewarganegaraan India Luar Negara (OCI) model, status kediaman “seperti kewarganegaraan” untuk ahli diaspora, tanpa pasport. 

Pendekatan Indonesia juga boleh dibandingkan dengan dasar imigresen dan dwi-kewarganegaraan Australia, yang menyediakan laluan bagi warganegara asing dan ekspatriat untuk memperoleh kediaman atau status khas sambil mengekalkan kewarganegaraan asal mereka. GCI membolehkan individu mengekalkan kewarganegaraan asing mereka sambil memperoleh kediaman jangka panjang hak di Indonesia; ia bukan laluan untuk pemerolehan kewarganegaraan atau kewarganegaraan Indonesia. 

Program GCI bertujuan menarik bakat dan pelaburan, memodenkan tadbir urus ke arah kerangka imigresen yang lebih terbuka, dan meningkatkan keterhubungan global Indonesia untuk menyokong pertumbuhan ekonomi.

Siapa yang boleh memohon (Pemohon yang layak)?

Rasmi siaran akhbar Imigresen menyenaraikan kumpulan-kumpulan ini sebagai layak memohon GCI, dengan ikatan kekeluargaan (termasuk mereka daripada keluarga perkahwinan campuran) menjadi teras kelayakan:

• Bekas warganegara Indonesia (ex-WNI), juga dirujuk sebagai bekas warganegara
• Keturunan bekas warganegara Indonesia sehingga darjah kedua
• Pasangan sah warganegara Indonesia (WNI) atau bekas WNI, termasuk pasangan asing
• Anak-anak daripada perkahwinan sah antara warganegara Indonesia dan warganegara asing, menonjolkan keluarga perkahwinan campuran

GCI direka untuk individu yang mempunyai hubungan biologi atau keturunan Indonesia yang disahkan.

Pada masa yang sama, senarai visa “GCI” awam yang dipaparkan di laman rasmi Imigresen menumpukan pada Siri E32 (lebih lanjut mengenai itu di bawah).

Siapa yang dikecualikan?

Siaran akhbar itu juga menyatakan permit tersebut. tidak terpakai kepada warganegara asing yang:

• adalah daripada negara-negara yang dahulu pernah menjadi sebahagian daripada wilayah Indonesia,
• terlibat dalam separatisme, atau
• mempunyai latar belakang sebagai pegawai awam, perisikan, atau ketenteraan asing di luar negara (seperti yang dinyatakan dalam siaran akhbar).

Anda juga akan melihat bahasa pengecualian yang serupa tersenarai di halaman rasmi visa E32 itu sendiri.

Berapa kos GCI dan berapa lama ia sah?

Pada portal eVisa, setiap pilihan GCI menunjukkan yuran yang sama sebanyak Rp 34.800.000 dan “5 TAHUN DAN KE ATAS (TANPA HAD)” (jadi penginapan anda disenaraikan sebagai Tanpa had). Tetapi, ingat, bahawa nombor itu adalah yuran visa kerajaan yang dipaparkan dalam sistem, biasanya ia tidak merangkumi tambahan seperti terjemahan bersumpah, document legalization, courier costs, or other document-prep expenses.

7 jenis visa GCI yang akan anda lihat di laman rasmi

On Immigration’s official “Global Citizen of Indonesia” page, GCI is linked to four visa categories: E32E, E32F, E32G, and E32H.

The official page lists key requirements like:

5) E31A, Pasangan kepada warganegara Indonesia

If you’re married to an Indonesian citizen and you want to live together in Indonesia, E31A (Diaspora) is the category used for a foreign spouse under the “Family Dependant for Diaspora” pathway in the official eVisa system.

Immigration generally focuses on three things: your identity, proof you can support the stay, dan proof the marriage is legally recognized (especially if it was registered outside Indonesia).

Typical documents you’ll prepare:

• Pasport sah untuk sekurang-kurangnya 6 bulan
• Proof you can cover living expenses
• Recent color photograph
• Rajah Hayat (CV)
• Itinerari perjalanan
• Application/support letter from your Indonesian husband or wife

Proof of a lawful marriage (depends on where it took place):

• If married outside Indonesia: proof of marriage reporting/registration at an Indonesian Mission (or authorized agency in Indonesia) + marriage certificate translated into Bahasa Indonesia by a sworn translator (translation not required if written in English)
• If married in Indonesia: marriage certificate/book issued by an authorized Indonesian ministry or institution

---

6) E31B, Pasangan Pemegang Visa / Permit Tinggal Utama

Think of E31B (Diaspora) as the “join your spouse” option when your husband or wife already has a main visa or stay permit in Indonesia. The focus here is less about “qualifying on your own,” and more about proving the relationship and showing the main permit is valid.

Typical documents you’ll prepare:

• Pasport sah untuk sekurang-kurangnya 6 bulan
• Proof you can cover living expenses
• Recent color photograph
• Rajah Hayat (CV)
• Itinerari perjalanan
• Guarantor letter / statement of commitment from your husband or wife

• Copy of your husband or wife’s valid main visa or stay permit

---

7) E31C, Anak Warga Negara Indonesia

E31C (Diaspora) is for a foreign child with an Indonesian parent under the “Family Dependant for Diaspora” pathway. The idea is simple: your documents must clearly connect the child to the Indonesian parent through official birth + family documents.

(This is for a child born from a lawful marriage where either parent is an Indonesian citizen and recognized by the relevant authority/Indonesian mission.)

Typical documents you’ll prepare:

• Pasport sah untuk sekurang-kurangnya 6 bulan
• Proof you can cover living expenses
• Recent color photograph
• Rajah Hayat (CV)
• Itinerari perjalanan
• Visa application/support letter from the Indonesian parent
• Family Card (KK) of the Indonesian parent

• Proof of birth reporting to an Indonesian Mission or authorized government agency in Indonesia (if the child was born abroad)

Proof of parents’ marriage (depends on where it took place):

• If married outside Indonesia: proof of marriage reporting/registration at an Indonesian Mission (or authorized agency in Indonesia) + marriage certificate translated into Bahasa Indonesia by a sworn translator (translation not required if written in English)
• If married in Indonesia: marriage certificate/book issued by an authorized Indonesian ministry or institution

Bagaimana untuk memohon Kewarganegaraan Global Indonesia

Just like e-visa on arrival, you can also apply for GCI on the official immigration website. 

Here’s the practical flow:

Langkah 1: Masuk ke sistem eVisa rasmi dan pilih tujuan yang betul

Start on Indonesia’s official Imigresen eVisa website and log in. On the visa-finder page, select your passport country/region, then choose Diaspora as your main purpose (and sub-purpose if it asks). This step matters because the GCI options appear under the Diaspora pathway; if you choose the wrong purpose, you may not see the E32 codes at all.

Langkah 2: Pilih kod GCI yang betul

Before you fill out anything, pick the visa code that matches your background. E32E is generally for ex-Indonesian citizens (ex-WNI), meaning you were previously Indonesian, and now you hold another citizenship. E32G is generally for descendants of ex-WNI, meaning you were never Indonesian yourself, but your parent or grandparent was Indonesian (up to second degree), and you can prove the family link.

Now the important warning: E32F and E32H are not “upgrades.” They are the special skills routes, and they typically require a central government invitation/urgency letter as part of the immigration guarantee. So if you don’t already have that government-backed invitation path, E32F/H may not be realistic, and you should usually focus on E32E (ex-WNI) atau E32G (descendant) Sebaliknya.

Quick “Which one am I?” guide (fast check):
If you can honestly say, “I used to be Indonesian, I had Indonesian documents, but I’m now a foreign citizen,” you’re usually an E32E case. If you can honestly say, “My parent/grandparent was Indonesian, but I have always been a foreign citizen,” you’re usually an E32G case. If you can say, “I’m ex-WNI/descendant and I have a central government invitation for special skills,” then E32F (ex-WNI) atau E32H (descendant) becomes the correct lane.

Langkah 3: Gunakan halaman “Butiran” sebagai senarai semak anda, kemudian isi borang dengan teliti.

After you select the code, open the visa Detail page first and treat it like a checklist. This page typically outlines the stay duration, cost, activities available, and required documents. Then fill in the application form: personal identity, passport information, and your address in Indonesia. Most delays happen because details don’t match (spelling differences, inconsistent names, unclear proof of ex-WNI/descendant status), so copy your passport information exactly and upload documents that clearly connect you to the eligibility category you selected.

Langkah 4: Bayar, muat turun eVisa anda, dan simpan fail lengkap penghantaran anda.

Once your form and documents are complete, proceed to payment. After approval, download the eVisa and save it with your payment receipt and the documents you uploaded. Don’t treat payment as the finish line; some GCI paths may include commitments or compliance points on the Detail page. The safest approach is to apply only when you’re ready to meet the requirements listed under your specific E32 code.

Finally, follow the compliance rules after entry. Immigration’s GCI page emphasizes “instant on arrival” processing and says reporting is only needed every five years, and it states that reporting has no fee.

Always refer to official information on the government portal for the latest updates and requirements.

Soalan Lazim

Adakah GCI sama dengan kewarganegaraan Indonesia atau pasport Indonesia?

No. The official Immigration page frames GCI as an unlimited stay permit (residency status), not nationality.

Adakah saya perlu menafikan kewarganegaraan semasa saya untuk mendapatkan GCI?

No, Immigration explicitly says GCI lets you get an unlimited stay permit “tanpa harus menanggalkan kewarganegaraan” (without relinquishing your citizenship). 

Apakah perbezaan antara versi “Tinggal Tetap” dan “Kemahiran Khas” (E32E/G vs E32F/H)?

The Special Skills versions (E32F/E32H) require a central government sponsor, and the immigration guarantee is an invitation/urgency letter from the central government.  The Permanent Stay versions (E32E/E32G) list no sponsor and use financial “commitment” requirements as the immigration guarantee. 

Bila permohonan dibuka, dan bila ia akan dilancarkan secara rasmi?

The Indonesian Immigration began accepting applications ahead of an official launch scheduled for 26 January 2026, and that applications were already under review in late December 2025. 

Adakah terdapat orang yang tidak layak walaupun mereka mempunyai keturunan Indonesia?

Yes. The E32 pages list exclusions such as:

• Nationals of countries that were once part of Indonesia’s territory
• Anyone currently/formerly serving as a civil servant, law enforcement, intelligence, or military abroad
• Anyone involved in separatism or actions against the national interest

Intipatinya

GCI is Indonesia’s “middle path” between no dual citizenship dan wanting the diaspora to stay connected. It’s framed as a way to let former Indonesians and certain family lines return and live in Indonesia long-term while keeping their foreign nationality.
