Event speaker visa
For speakers, lecturers and presenters invited to a conference or exhibition. Convertible to a stay permit with the same sponsor.
Worth knowing: Fan meetings and similar events were removed from C10 in the 2025 revision, and a speaking fee paid by an Indonesian party sits outside the index.

Often confused with this one
Immigration classifies by activity, and the boundaries between these are where most mistakes happen. If none of them is quite what you’re doing, ask.
Tourism & family visit visa
Longer than a VoA, for holidays, visiting relatives and transit. Extendable.
Business visit visa
Negotiations, and visits to offices, factories or investment sites. Not for doing the work itself.
Exhibitor & MICE visa
For operating at a MICE event — running a stand, exhibiting. C11A applies to calling-visa nationalities.
Operational test & work trial visa
Operational tests and work trials — proving a process or a line before it goes live.
Technical work visa
Installing, repairing or commissioning equipment. This is the index people miss when they send an engineer on a business visa.
Exhibitor visa, calling-visa nationalities
The C11 route for passports that require additional clearance. Same activity, materially longer lead time — start earlier than you think you need to.
