Essential Guides for Your Move
Everything you need to know before, during, and after your relocation from Dubai to Bali.
How long does the full relocation process take from Dubai to Bali?+
Typically 3-6 months from initial consultation to moving in. This includes visa processing (4-8 weeks), property search and negotiation (2-4 weeks), shipping logistics (4-6 weeks), and final setup. We recommend starting the process 6 months before your intended move date for the smoothest transition.
Can foreigners legally own property in Bali?+
Foreigners cannot directly own freehold land in Indonesia. However, there are well-established legal structures including Hak Pakai (Right to Use) for up to 80 years, leasehold arrangements (typically 25-30 years renewable), and PT PMA company ownership. Our legal team will guide you through the most suitable structure for your investment goals.
What visa options are available for Dubai residents moving to Bali?+
Several options exist: KITAS (temporary stay permit) via investor, work, or retirement visa; the new Digital Nomad Visa (B211A) for remote workers; Second Home Visa for those with IDR 2 billion+ in savings; and the Golden Visa for significant investors. Each has different requirements regarding age, income, and investment levels. We’ll match you with the optimal visa category.
How does the cost of living in Bali compare to Dubai?+
Bali offers 40-60% lower living costs compared to Dubai while maintaining a comparable luxury lifestyle. A premium villa that costs AED 25,000/month in Dubai Marina would be $2,000-3,500/month in Seminyak. Private schooling, dining, and household staff are significantly more affordable. Our detailed cost comparison guide breaks down every category.
Is healthcare in Bali adequate for expatriate families?+
Bali has excellent international-standard hospitals including BIMC Siloam and Bali Royal Hospital with English-speaking doctors trained internationally. For complex procedures, Singapore and Bangkok are 3-4 hours away. We recommend international health insurance (Cigna, Allianz, Pacific Cross) which provides comprehensive coverage including medical evacuation.
Do you offer exploration trips before committing to a full move?+
Absolutely. Our 5-7 day Bali Discovery Tours are designed specifically for Dubai residents considering relocation. You’ll visit neighborhoods, tour international schools, inspect properties, meet our legal and banking partners, and experience daily life in different areas. It’s the smartest way to make an informed decision before committing to the move.
