Recommend lawyer or advisor to set-up a business (PMA) & KITAS
Hi everyone!
My name is Natasha, I'm from Canada and I moved to Bali 7 months ago (I live in Legian). I Love it here! I am a health coach and I would like to start a business here in Bali giving healthy cooking lessons & personalized diet & health coaching. I was wondering if anyone can recommend a good lawyer/advisor to set up the business (PMA) and do the paper work for KITAS application. What I gather from going through the forum the KITAS will cost about 2000 USD and PMA 7500 USD, is that correct?
Also has anyone ever been rejected coming into Bali on a tourist visa? I leave Bali every 30-60 days to Thailand where I am setting up yoga/raw food retreats and have been having a lot of problems with immigration when I return to Bali-- they don't like it that I have been coming back & forth and are suspicious that I am working her. I am scared that one day they might not let me back! I would love to get a social visa, but I have to leave for work every month or two.
if you have to leave every other month, why would you want to have a KITAS?
costs mentioned by you are way too expensive.
if you're not working they can't proof you are so legally they have no reason to not let you in.
don't read between the lines..i think the words are clear enough...:)
To start a PMA allow yourself $10,000US & 3-6 months. There is a lot involved in setting up a company & working visa, so your agent will hit you hard.
If you are not working a tourist visa will do, if you are in doubt you can get a multi entry business visa.
USD 10K

I have sent you a PM with the telephone number of my Advisor
I have just learnt that pleasing everyone is impossible. But, pissing them off is a piece of cake
Thank you so much Annie, much appreciated!Originally Posted by scout

Hmm, thats a good idea to get a multiple-entry business visa for the time being as I am setting up the business and not working. Thank You!! I believe on a Business Visa I can be setting things up, but no working, am I correct?
Hi Natasha
i may be able to help you with information. feel free to message me at gary1970 at hotmail dot com
the OP said "Love it here! I am a health coach and I would like to start a business here in Bali giving healthy cooking lessons & personalized diet & health coaching" - so a multi entry business visa won't work!!!
Be very careful - Giving cooking lessons is a high visibility type of work and people do talk.... before you know it, the immigration officer will be knocking on your door!!
Get yourself a working KITAS and then you will be covering the right bases!!!
getting a workingkitas ? hardly think there's a company suitable for sponsoring/employing her for such a workpermit
