KTKLN for indo maid?

[intlmom]

Am wondering if anyone of you have tried to hire an Indo maid with going through an agency?


My in laws who are living in Bali found a lady who is ex-SIN maid and will like to come back to Singapore to work.

She will renew her passport on her own and will apply for the KTKLN card in Bandung. But how does she apply for the "Employment contract, issued and endorsed by the Embassy?"

Can someone help me shed some light on how do I go about getting this done.

Hi reddiechan,


The KTKLN card is only good if she is still coming back.

If she is returning for good, the expired KTKLN card would not pose any problem. Plus, if she is returning for good, her passport need not have 6 months validity too. Save money to renew her passport

Thank you! joanne_mas :thankyou:

Hi My maid of 6 months has a KTKLN card and expiring in May. I normally go to Indonesia for vacations yearly and intend to bring her along with me for the vacation. To renew her KTKLN card is it good as a new application or what are the process. Is there any contact of any person in Batam which can help me with the application due i am with a young baby of 6 months and it is difficult for me to bring her to batam for the renewal. Thanks

I wonder if someone can help me with my situation. My maid is a transfer maid so her documents are somewhat all unsync. Her passport expires 24 Nov 2016. her KTKLN card expires 13 Dec 2013. Her work premit expires 29 Sep 2014 which is also when her contract expires.


Can I ignore the KTKLN card expiry for now? Till she decides to renew her contract in 2014. If she decides to renew her contract, then I need go to the Indo embassy to get a new contract done, do up a new WP then she can come back from her home leave? Can I renew her contract before the existing contract ends?

The KTKLN card is only needed when your helper needs to come back to Singapore from Indonesia. So yes, you can ignore the KTKLN expiry for now I believe.

Thank you!! Though I think I will have to get a proper contract done at Indo Embassy if she decides to take home leave before the 2 years is up. The contract signed at the agency dont seem very proper and likely not recognised by the Indo government.

Make sure you bring IC photos for her, and set aside at least 2 hours to get it done. At least its free!

The issue is, I don't think she can get her KTKLN card unless she has the employment contract from Embassy, which is issued here. So she has to get here 1st. My ex-maid came back just before this ruling. So went to get her Embassy endorsed working contract just before she went on home leave. When she gets back, she will apply her KTKLN card.

Hi can anyone advise what documents to bring for the doing up of the employment contract in the Indonesia embassy here for renewing the KTKLN card?


So far is it really difficult to renew the KTKLN card in Indonesia after hearing so much bad experiences ?

Kindly advise

Photocopy both sides of your IC and work permit card. Otherwise have to queue another place to do it. Just bring employer ID, maid passport and work permit.
