The Hague Apostille Convention will come into effect between the Federal Republic of Germany and the People's Republic of China on 7 November 2023. Thus there will be no need to have documents from the respective issuing state legalised by the accredited foreign representations of the destination state for use in the destination state. Accordingly the legalisation process for public documents will be replaced by the so-called "apostille". The apostille confirms that the signature is genuine and that the issuer of the document is authorised to do so.

As of now, a business visa - Business Visa B211B - can be applied for at the Indonesian Consulate General via the DVKG.
This visa allows a 60-day stay in Indonesia and can be extended twice for another 60 days each time. The corresponding application can be started easily in the DVKG portal.
Your DVKG Team
Due to the high volume of applications for China, we recommend applying for visas early. Especially for applications in Frankfurt and Munich, please plan for longer processing times due to the limited number of appointments.
