## What does P2MI Regulation 34/2025 cover?

P2MI/BP2MI Regulation 34/2025 on the Electronic Indonesian Migrant Worker Card (Permen P2MI 34/2025) was signed on 28 November 2025 and, according to peraturan.go.id, promulgated on 3 December 2025. It governs the E-KPMI: what the card shows, what it is for, who issues it, how long it is valid, border checks, and the duties of placement executors. The E-KPMI is electronic proof that a migrant worker has met the requirements and procedures to work in the destination country (Article 1, point 2).

## What does the E-KPMI show and what is it for?

Article 3 says the E-KPMI shows at least the worker's name, passport number, home region, destination, placement executor, photo, a QR code and the validity period. Its functions (Article 4) are:

1. proof that the worker went through the lawful placement stages;
2. a record of the worker's participation in government programmes; and
3. data used to protect the worker.

Migrant workers who are about to leave, are working abroad, or are extending their employment contract must hold a valid E-KPMI (Article 5).

## Who issues the E-KPMI and how long is it valid?

KP2MI/BP2MI issues the E-KPMI through Sisko P2MI once all requirements and procedures are met (Article 6). It is valid for the length of the employment contract; for cross-border workers it is valid for 1 year and can be extended while they keep working (Article 7). Issuing and extending the E-KPMI is free of charge (Article 10).

## Where is the E-KPMI checked?

The E-KPMI is checked when a migrant worker leaves or enters Indonesia, through the immigration information system linked to Sisko P2MI (Article 11). Placement executors must make sure every worker they place holds an E-KPMI; breaches can lead to a written warning, suspension of activities or revocation of the agency's SIP3MI licence (Article 13).

## What happens to the older electronic card?

Electronic migrant worker cards issued before Regulation 34/2025 was promulgated remain valid until they expire (Article 14(b)). Workers registered on Sisko P2MI whose old card has expired and who are still working abroad must register for an E-KPMI through Sisko P2MI within 1 year of the regulation's promulgation (Article 14(a)). The placement stages that lead to the E-KPMI are set out in [P2MI Regulation 2/2026](https://kariraman.com/en/regulations/p2mi-regulation-2-2026-placement-procedure/).

KP2MI/BP2MI issues the E-KPMI through Sisko P2MI after all placement requirements and procedures are complete (Article 6). The card is proof that you are leaving through the lawful stages (Article 4).
