Costs and timing

Check current requirements, availability and charges through the official reference ↗ before paying or travelling.

Check eligibility before starting

This is a renewal guide, not a first-licence application. Read the expiry date and licence class. If the SIM has expired, ask SATPAS which process applies. Do not rely on social posts promising lifetime validity or universally free renewal.

Official guidance for SINAR includes verification of the phone number, KTP details and face. Resolve mismatched information before proceeding with documents or payment.

Plan the total cost and timing

Record issuance, examination and delivery costs separately. A payment at one stage may not cover the whole process. Check the test provider’s displayed price where official references differ.

Choose a receiving method you can use and keep payment evidence and the transaction number. Queues and shipping affect completion. Temporary holiday arrangements apply only within their announced dates and areas.

Things to check carefully

  • Apply while the SIM is valid and allow processing time.
  • Blurred photographs or inconsistent details can cause rejection.

Frequently asked questions

Can I renew an expired SIM in the app?
