Immigration officials in Bima, West Nusa Tenggara, deported a 47-year-old Chinese national identified as WY for conducting unauthorized business activities while holding a visit visa. Intelligence teams discovered that WY was purchasing and testing seaweed at a local processing plant, which led to an investigation into his immigration status. Investigators determined that WY used a multiple-entry visit visa to operate a company involved in trading approximately 30 metric tons of seaweed, selling the product domestically and exporting it to China. This activity violated specific articles of Indonesia’s 2011 Immigration Law regarding the misuse of stay permits. As a result, authorities detained WY, deported him via Lombok airport on October 30, and issued a five-year ban on his re-entry into Indonesia.

Bali immigration authorities deported an Indian national after discovering he possessed two passports with conflicting identities while attempting to depart for the Philippines. The individual, referred to as SP, entered Bali using one passport but presented a different one during exit screening, prompting a detailed investigation by the Ngurah Rai Immigration Office. Forensic analysis revealed signs of tampering, specifically a suspected replacement of the biodata page in one of the documents. Following his detention and questioning, SP was removed from Indonesia on October 27 and sent back to Chennai via Kuala Lumpur. The head of the immigration office emphasized that strict document verification upon entry and exit is essential for maintaining public security and preventing fraud.
