What is the RPTKA for the Work KITAS application?

The RPTKA (Rencana Penggunaan Tenaga Kerja Asing) is the Foreign Worker Employment Plan required for every company that hires foreign employees in Indonesia.

It must be validated by the Central Government before a Work KITAS can be issued.

The RPTKA includes detailed information such as:

• the identity of the foreign worker,
• the job position and job description,
• the work location,
• the duration of employment,
• and the number of required Indonesian companion workers (mandatory in certain roles).

In short, the RPTKA confirms that the company is legally allowed to hire a foreign employee and outlines the exact role that the Work KITAS will cover. You can find further information here: How to apply for the RPTKA.
