In Indonesia
If you are a Belgian citizen permanently resident in Indonesia, you must apply for a local driver's license.
Requirements for Indonesian Driver’s License:
- Original passport.
- Photocopy of passport pages containing identity information, visa, and entry stamp.
- Original and copy of KITAS or KITAP card for those who are permanently domiciled in Indonesia.
- Original and copy of any valid driver’s license(s) you already have, if applicable.

Where to go for the license:
The Indonesian police are in charge of issuing driver’s licenses. Therefore, you will need to go to your local mid-level police station. They’re called Polresta (or Poltabes), or Polres, depending on whether you live in a large city (kotamadya) or in a regency (kabupaten).
