Correct path

The right path for Indonesia

Dukcapil, DJP and BAN-PT in Jakarta, Surabaya or Bandung want proof the Swedish original is genuine. Apostille is issued by Notarius Publicus in Sweden. Forms are in Indonesian. The embassy in Stockholm handles passports and consular work, not apostille.

Overview

How it works for Indonesia

Indonesian authorities think in the NIK and Dukcapil: Disdukcapil for akta kelahiran, kartu keluarga and KTP-el, IKD as digital identity, DJP for NPWP (NIK is now the NPWP), BAN-PT and Kemendikbudristek for degrees, BPN/ATR for sertifikat hak milik, Ditjen AHU for a PT, SKCK for a police record. Forms are in Bahasa Indonesia in Latin script; Javanese, Sundanese, Malay and English-only rarely suffice on originals. We apostille Swedish originals via Notarius Publicus and translate with Kammarkollegiet-authorized Indonesian. A document issued in Indonesia is apostilled there.ahu.go.id. This is the document chain, not eVOA and not visa on arrival.

When needed

Typical situations in Indonesia

The contact usually comes from Dukcapil, DJP, BAN-PT, BPN or a notaris – not from the embassy at Kungsbroplan 1:

Birth or marriage certificate must enter Disdukcapil after a move to Jakarta
NIK, kartu keluarga and papers for DJP toward an NPWP
Assessment of a Swedish degree against BAN-PT via Kemendikbudristek
Land purchase – extracts for BPN toward a sertifikat hak milik in Bandung
Company papers for Ditjen AHU for a PT in Surabaya
Surat kuasa for an agent before a notaris in Denpasar

1 Find out who the recipient is

Dukcapil, DJP, BAN-PT or BPN sends a checklist. The embassy at Kungsbroplan 1 is rarely on it. eVOA is not on that list.
2 Order the right Swedish original

Skatteverket, a court or a school issues the document. Copies rarely suffice for BPN or a purchase toward Ditjen AHU.
3 Translate into Indonesian if needed

Dukcapil and most BAN-PT files want authorized Bahasa Indonesia. Kammarkollegiet.
4 Notarise a surat kuasa before apostille

If a notaris in Jakarta or Surabaya is to act for you, the power of attorney must be attested by Notarius Publicus in Sweden first.
5 Apostille and tracked return

Notarius Publicus adds the apostille. You get the original (and the translation) back, ready for filing in Indonesia.ahu.go.id, which only covers Indonesian originals.

Important

Apostille via Notarius Publicus

FAQ

Can the embassy at Kungsbroplan 1 apostille for me?

No. They help Indonesian citizens with passports and consular work. Apostille on Swedish originals is done by Notarius Publicus in Sweden. The old Sysslomansgatan 18 address does not apply.

Do I need Javanese or Malay instead of Indonesian?

No. Indonesian, Javanese and Malay are different languages. Dukcapil and BAN-PT want Bahasa Indonesia in Latin script, not a Malay form from Malaysia.

I already have an apostille – is English enough for Dukcapil?

Sometimes in the e-queue, rarely on the original. Disdukcapil and DJP read Indonesian. Apostille proves authenticity; translation makes the content readable. eVOA is not the step.
