FAQs - Summer Internship Programm
A big step into the unknown comes with a lot of questions. Have a look at our FAQs for answers.
Who can apply?
Our internship, voluntary work and study programs are all open for everyone. Our programs are open to anyone who is the minimum age of 18 years old, current students, graduates, post graduates, young professionals, career changing professionals and seniors. Our internship programs are open for all interested individuals, who wish to travel while having meaningful experiences for both personal or professional growth.
Why are internships unpaid?
All internships offered are unpaid due to Indonesia’s strict immigration and department of labor laws and regulations, for foreign nationals. All non-Indonesian interns are to be invited by legitimate host companies under a social culture visa which does not allow remuneration. To reward interns, most of Bali Internships’ host partners offer different forms of allowances, such as: free accommodation, meals, visa extension fee, vouchers, scooter rental fee and so forth. Any agent or host company promoting a paid internship in Indonesia under social culture visa, is acting against Indonesian immigration law.
Can I apply for an internship even if I do not speak Indonesian?
Yes, you can also apply for an internship in Bali even if you do not speak Indonesian. You should, however, not forget that Indonesian is the official language.
How many hours will I be working as an intern in a week?
In general interns are assigned to comply with the office's working days and hours. Monday-Friday, 7 hours a day (one-hour lunch break in addition), Saturday and Sunday are off for all interns to relax and enjoy the beauty of the island.
Will I receive support upon my arrival and during my stay?
Definitely! Both your Bali Internships and your future internship host company will assist you accordingly prior and during your internship in Bali. On your first day of internship our team will accompany and guide you.
What does visa assistance mean?
Visa assistance means that we will mediate with you to provide you assistance, information, and guidance during your visa application. Visa costs are not included in our service fee and need to be settled directly to your visa inviter as the current visa applications due to the global pandemic are all done online and directly to the Immigration Official site and visits to the embassy of Indonesia have been eliminated entirely. During your program in Bali, our team will assist you to arrange your visa extension after your first 60 days in Bali. This includes providing you with necessary contacts from visa agents and extension documents. The extension fees are not included in our service fee and need to be settled at the immigration office in Bali directly.
