Forthcoming Events
 
Dear Valued Members, 
 
We would like to thank you for your continued engagement with BritCham during these difficult times. Our events’ programme remains postponed until further notice. However, we are learning from the experiences of associate Chambers in HK and China who are now around 2 months more advanced than Indonesia. Later this week, we will be announcing our webinar panel programme to assist members with the challenges of working from home, business continuity and education preoccupations. These will be a complimentary service from BritCham to its community.

For the time being, we will continue to review all information from our Embassy and FCO posts. We will also be directed by any guidance and mandates from Republic of Indonesia.

We are keen to hear from you with suggestions for the BritCham community, or simply anecdotes you may wish to share.

With our best wishes for remaining safe and healthy.
The BritCham Executive Office Team

COVID-19 Exceptional Travel Advisory Notice
COVID-19 Exceptional Travel Advisory Notice
Return to the UK

British nationals in Indonesia who wish to leave, should make arrangements to do so as soon as possible.

The number of international flights out of Indonesia is reducing daily, to destinations within the region and globally, so you may not be able to leave Indonesia when you had planned to. Flights and medical evacuation may not be available, or become very expensive if you do not depart soon.

The British Embassy Jakarta is issuing regular updates on Twitter and Facebook with the latest available information on flight departure options for British nationals wishing to leave Bali and other areas of Indonesia.
