From Second Home Visa to Permanent Residency (ITAP)

The three-year path from long-stay residency to permanent residency — and what it unlocks.

The Second Home Visa in three steps: Qualify by keeping a $130,000 deposit or owning a $1,000,000+ property; Reside for 5 to 10 years with spouse, children and parents included; Stay with permanent residency (ITAP) after 3 years.
Residency now; permanent residency after three years.

The progression The Second Home Visa is the door. ITAP (Izin Tinggal Tetap — permanent stay permit) is the home. After holding qualifying residency for three years, you may apply for ITAP.

What ITAP changes - Longer validity and simpler renewals - Greater stability for property, banking and family life - A genuine sense of permanence — you are no longer a long-term visitor; you live here

The sequence, simply - Years 0–3: Second Home Visa (5–10 year validity), family sponsored. - Year 3+: apply for ITAP. - Beyond: continued permanent residency, renewable.
