All internships offered are unpaid due to Indonesia’s strict immigration and department of labor laws and regulations, for foreign nationals. All non-Indonesian interns are to be invited by legitimate host companies under a social culture visa which does not allow remuneration. To reward interns, most of Bali Internships’ host partners offer different forms of allowances, such as: free accommodation, meals, visa extension fee, vouchers, scooter rental fee and so forth. Any agent or host company promoting a paid internship in Indonesia under social culture visa, is acting against Indonesian immigration law. For our WNI applicants, please consult our program coordinator for possible paid internship.
