VOA and B1 visas cannot be converted directly into a KITAS. In these cases, you first need to obtain a 60-day Bridging Visa. It allows you to extend your legal stay and prepare your KITAS application.
A Bridging Visa may also be used when switching from one type of KITAS to another, for example, from an Investor KITAS to another KITAS type.
We will check your situation free of charge and tell you whether you need a Bridging Visa in your case.
