Frequently asked questions


Submit all necessary legal documents required to sponsor the intern’s visa in compliance with Indonesian immigration laws.

Offer relevant training, mentorship, and support to ensure the intern develops both professionally and personally during their stay.

Involve the intern in purposeful, educational tasks that align with their academic background and internship goals.

Stay in contact with Bali Work Group and provide feedback on the intern’s progress if requested.

Comply with the agreed work schedule and avoid assigning tasks outside the intern’s scope or legal limitations.

No, it is illegal to pay a foreign intern under an internship visa. However, you can support the student by offering accommodation, covering visa costs, providing a bike, or offering other in-kind benefits.

Our service is completely free of charge for host companies.

We offer full assistance throughout the internship process — from candidate matching to visa coordination and ongoing support.

In return, we kindly ask for your commitment to our exclusive partnership and transparent communication, to ensure a smooth and successful experience for both your team and the interns.

Interns usually stay for 2 to 6 months, but if you have a minimum period in mind, we can accommodate that as well.

Our candidates are mostly from Europe and typically come from France, Belgium, Netherlands, and Italy.

We receive new applications every week. However, we carefully match candidates to ensure the best fit for your company, so it may take some time before we introduce a candidate to you.

We conduct a pre-screening interview to understand the intern’s needs and qualifications. Then, we introduce them to your company and arrange a Zoom interview between you and the candidate (we do not participate in this interview). Afterward, you will confirm whether the result is positive or negative and we will handle all the necessary paperwork, including the internship agreement, visa application, and trip preparations.


A couple of days before the intern’s arrival, we will reach out to your team to confirm the first-day schedule and exchange contact details with the candidates. At the same time, the interns will receive the WhatsApp number of the team member from your company that they will be meeting on their first day of the internship.

We need to ensure that interns receive the correct visa sponsorship under your PT, rather than a legal agent’s PT. Failing to do so could result in immigration issues for both you and the intern, potentially affecting the legality of the internship—something we want to prevent at all costs.

The internship and the student’s stay in Indonesia are only valid and legal if your company, not a legal agency, serves as the official sponsor. We understand that sharing these documents may be a concern.

To address this, our legal team provides a confidentiality letter explicitly stating that your information will be used solely for processing internship visas for the students you host.

We aim to ensure that all communication with the intern (our client) is efficient and clear, which is why it’s important for us to manage the information they receive. Interns often have many questions, and we want to make sure they reach out to us rather than overwhelming you with inquiries.

If an intern chooses to leave before the agreed end date, or if the collaboration isn’t a good fit from your side, we step in as a neutral point of contact to manage the situation professionally.

This includes:

  • Discussing the reasons with both sides
  • Offering a replacement candidate (if needed)
  • Updating visa and legal sponsorship accordingly

That said, it’s important to be aware that this isn’t a simple process for the intern. In Indonesia, their visa is sponsored under your company, meaning if the internship ends early or if the student needs to move to another host, they must exit the country, cancel their current visa sponsorship, and re-enter under a new one.

It’s doable, but it comes with costs, logistics, and legal coordination for the student— so we always aim to avoid that scenario whenever possible.

Yes.

For legal and administrative consistency, all interns must be onboarded through Bali Work Group, even if they’re found through your own network or come from external sources.

This process ensures:

  • Full visa compliance
  • Proper documentation and sponsorship
  • That the intern is legally authorized to work in Indonesia
  • That they receive full support with logistics like accommodation, insurance, scooter rental, and more

We’re happy to support independently sourced interns they don’t need to be from a partner school.
