# Job documents checklist

Tick the documents you already have to apply for a job, start work or go abroad to work through official channels.

**Runs in your browser. Nothing is sent to KarirAman.**

## Which documents do you already have?

### When you apply for a job in Indonesia (5 documents)

- Your NIK also serves as your tax number (NPWP) if you are an Indonesian resident taxpayer, so mismatched details can hold up tax and other registrations. [Panduan Warga guide to a first KTP-el ID card](https://panduanwarga.org/en/guides/first-indonesian-id-card/) Source: [JDIH BPK RI (peraturan.bpk.go.id)](https://peraturan.bpk.go.id/Download/211675/112_PMK.03_2022.pdf) 8 October 2026
- Leave out details you do not need to share, such as bank account numbers or a photo of your ID card, from a CV you send to many places. [ATS-friendly CV for jobs in Indonesia: a readable format that protects your data](https://kariraman.com/en/guides/ats-friendly-cv/) [Cover letters for jobs in Indonesia: clear structure, convincing content, safe sending](https://kariraman.com/en/guides/cover-letter/)
- Minister of Manpower Circular M/5/HK.04.00/V/2025 bars employers from requiring or holding original diplomas and personal documents as a guarantee for a job. [Employer holding your diploma in Indonesia: what the rules say and how to get it back](https://kariraman.com/en/workers-rights/withheld-diploma/) Source: [JDIH Kementerian Ketenagakerjaan](https://jdih.kemnaker.go.id/asset/data_puu/2025senaker005.pdf) 8 October 2026
- Minister of Manpower Regulation 18/2024 says job seekers who are about to start work must have a SIAPkerja-ID. You get it by creating an account and filling in your profile on SIAPkerja, free of charge. [Open the official site (siapkerja.kemnaker.go.id)](https://siapkerja.kemnaker.go.id/) Source: [JDIH Kementerian Ketenagakerjaan](https://jdih.kemnaker.go.id/asset/data_puu/2024pmnaker018.pdf) 8 October 2026
- The SKCK is issued by the National Police, is valid for up to 6 months from issue, and can be requested at a police station counter or online.

### After you are hired, before your first day (4 documents)

- Since 1 July 2024 the NIK has been used as the NPWP in tax services and other parties' services. Your details are matched against civil registry (Dukcapil) data, and details that are not yet valid need updating. [Panduan Warga Coretax guide](https://panduanwarga.org/en/guides/coretax-tax-id-and-annual-return/) Source: [JDIH BPK RI (peraturan.bpk.go.id)](https://peraturan.bpk.go.id/Download/211675/112_PMK.03_2022.pdf) 8 October 2026; [JDIH BPK RI (peraturan.bpk.go.id)](https://peraturan.bpk.go.id/Download/342366/2023pmkeuangan136.pdf) 8 October 2026
- Law 24/2011 requires everyone who works to join social security and requires employers to register their workers. Ask for your membership number. [BPJS Ketenagakerjaan: programmes, employer duties and how to make sure you are registered](https://kariraman.com/en/workers-rights/bpjs-employment-social-security/) [Panduan Warga guide to Indonesian social insurance](https://panduanwarga.org/en/guides/indonesian-social-insurance/) Source: [JDIH BPK RI](https://peraturan.bpk.go.id/Download/28701/UU%2024%20Tahun%202011.pdf) 7 October 2026
- Wages may be paid in person or through a bank and must be available to withdraw on payday. The financial intelligence agency PPATK asks people never to lend or sell their bank account to anyone. [Panduan Warga guide to opening a bank account](https://panduanwarga.org/en/guides/open-bank-account-indonesia/) Source: [Kementerian Hukum RI (peraturan.go.id)](https://peraturan.go.id/files/pp36-2021bt.pdf) 7 October 2026; [Pusat Pelaporan dan Analisis Transaksi Keuangan (PPATK)](https://www.ppatk.go.id/siaran_pers/read/1508/ppatk-rampungkan-analisis-rekening-dormant-diharapkan-rekening-nasabah-lebih-terlindungi-terbebas-dari-potensi-penyimpangan-dan-penyalahgunaan.html) 8 October 2026
- A fixed-term contract (PKWT) must be in writing, in Indonesian and in the Latin alphabet. Read it first and keep your copy. [PKWT vs PKWTT: fixed-term and permanent employment contracts in Indonesia](https://kariraman.com/en/workers-rights/pkwt-pkwtt-employment-contracts/) Source: [Kementerian Hukum RI (peraturan.go.id)](https://peraturan.go.id/files/uu-no-6-tahun-2023.pdf) 7 October 2026

### Extra documents for working abroad through an official route (7 documents)

- A passport is a required document for prospective migrant workers (Law 18/2017 Article 13), and Article 6 gives you the right to keep your travel documents while you work. Never hand over your passport as a guarantee. [Panduan Warga passport guide](https://panduanwarga.org/en/guides/indonesian-passport-m-paspor/) Source: [Kementerian Hukum RI (peraturan.go.id)](https://peraturan.go.id/files/uu18-2017bt.pdf) 7 October 2026
- Law 18/2017 Article 13 requires a health certificate based on medical and psychological checks. For jobs in Indonesia, get a health certificate only if the employer asks. Source: [Kementerian Hukum RI (peraturan.go.id)](https://peraturan.go.id/files/uu18-2017bt.pdf) 7 October 2026
- Regulation P2MI 2/2026 asks for a certificate from an independent certification body. If no scheme exists for the job, a diploma or another skills certificate can replace it. [BNSP competency certification in Indonesia: how to get one, check it and when you need it](https://kariraman.com/en/education/bnsp-competency-certification/) Source: [Kementerian Hukum RI (peraturan.go.id)](https://www.peraturan.go.id/files/permen-p2mi-no-2-tahun-2026.pdf) 7 October 2026
- The consent letter is acknowledged by the village head or lurah. Married applicants attach a copy of their marriage book. Source: [Kementerian Hukum RI (peraturan.go.id)](https://peraturan.go.id/files/uu18-2017bt.pdf) 7 October 2026; [Kementerian Hukum RI (peraturan.go.id)](https://www.peraturan.go.id/files/permen-p2mi-no-2-tahun-2026.pdf) 7 October 2026
- Prospective migrant workers choose a job and upload documents through their own SISKOP2MI account, not through an intermediary's account. Source: [Kementerian Hukum RI (peraturan.go.id)](https://www.peraturan.go.id/files/permen-p2mi-no-2-tahun-2026.pdf) 7 October 2026
- Prospective migrant workers must join the work-accident (JKK) and death (JKM) programmes and may also join old-age savings (JHT). Registration runs through SISKOP2MI, linked to BPJS Ketenagakerjaan service channels. [Open the official site (bpjsketenagakerjaan.go.id)](https://www.bpjsketenagakerjaan.go.id/pekerja-migran-indonesia.html) Source: [Kementerian Hukum RI (peraturan.go.id)](https://peraturan.go.id/files/uu18-2017bt.pdf) 7 October 2026; [JDIH Kementerian Ketenagakerjaan](https://jdih.kemnaker.go.id/asset/data_puu/2026pmp2mi009.pdf) 8 October 2026
- All three are required documents under Law 18/2017 Article 13. On costs: migrant workers may not be charged placement costs (Law 18/2017 Article 30(1)); under Regulation P2MI 17/2025 the employer bears placement costs by default, and you may be charged only costs written and itemised in the Placement Agreement; any request for money outside that document, in cash or to a personal account, is a red flag. [Placement fees for Indonesian migrant workers: who pays and what is lawful?](https://kariraman.com/en/work-abroad/placement-costs/) [How to check a licensed overseas recruitment agency (P3MI) on SISKOP2MI](https://kariraman.com/en/work-abroad/check-a-licensed-agency/) Source: [Kementerian Hukum RI (peraturan.go.id)](https://peraturan.go.id/files/uu18-2017bt.pdf) 7 October 2026; [Kementerian Hukum RI (peraturan.go.id)](https://peraturan.go.id/files/permen-p2mi-no-17-tahun-2025.pdf) 7 October 2026

## How does this tool work?

The list holds 16 documents, grouped by stage: applying, starting work and official placement abroad. Ticks are not saved unless you press the save button. Only the codes of ticked documents and the save date are stored, in this device's browser storage. The delete button removes that data, and the print button prints just this list. Without JavaScript you can still tick the list and print it from the browser menu, but your ticks are not saved.

[KarirAman Methodology](https://kariraman.com/en/methodology/)

## What are the limits of this tool?

This list helps you prepare and does not replace official requirements. Employers, agencies or destination countries can ask for other documents, so follow the list from the employer or the official placement agency. Saved ticks exist only in this browser: if you clear browser data, use a private window or switch devices, they are gone. Do not save ticks on someone else's device.
