Hi all! I am also looking at going to Indonesia to teach next year. I have done some research and have seen on the forum that there might be a 25 yr old age requirement for the work visa. I will be 23 shortly and was wondering whether this is the case. Any advice would be really appreciated. As I have seen most of the jobs to be located in Jakarta, I was also wondering whether it is too difficult to leave and go to other beautiful islands. Thanks!

hai eegrova25,
welcome to the forum..
I was wondering what were you planning on teaching? Not that I have a job on offer..
But I can just imagine it would be kinda hard to find an employer in the education department willing to pay for your worklicense...

Hi Elena: regarding minimum age requirement for getting a work visa - You may want to post your question on the other expat forum (www dot livinginindonesiaforum dot org) - the moderator there is very knowledgeable in regards to Indonesian Immigration Laws and Visa matters.
Not sure what your qualifications are - but you can always start by doing an online inquiry about the schools you are interested in working for. E-mail them and see if they have an opening and tell them your background and qualifications. Here are some of the international schools in Bali that I am aware of:
Bali International School (English Curriculum)
Australian International School
Sanur Independent School
Canggu Community School
--------------------------------
Yayasan Dyatmika
Gandhi Memorial School
--------------------------------
My son attended Australian International School for 4 years - while he was there, it seemed like the teachers have short contracts and move around quite a bit. So that could create an need. Good luck.
