Negotiating salary and benefits in Indonesia

Tax - You must have an MPWP number but the company should sort out all the messing around. Tax was paid at source for every job I've had so I had nothing to do as far as tax was concerned.

I would expect to have a full expat package to include housing, car and driver, a maid/cook, international schooling for my children, a flight home for my family once a year, possibly membership to an expat club, full medical insurance for my family. I'd also expect to be paid in US Dollars.

I was once offered a nice package to be based in Surabaya when I was working with Kodeco offshore Madura Island in Java that would have paid a great salary, housing, car with driver and a maid as well as a more senior position, but it meant giving up the really nice expat lifestyle that I was having living in Singapore at the time.

This very much depends on who you are, an English teacher working for a language mill starting on around 10 million per month, then moving up from there.
All should come with flight tickets as I gather the law demands that much.

Hi Bhavna,

As per your query, I would just share my experience since I am in Jakarta, Indonesia for many years now.
Depending on the job, I would say, you need to (may be) negotiate the salary offered to you. Basically, expats are eligible to get a work visa sponsored by the employer, a furnished apartment or housing allowance, medical insurance, return airfare to your country and some companies also provide the transport allowance or pick up service.
You, however, may not negotiate in everything mentioned about, just salary is negotiable. Also, if you don't like the housing provided by them, you may ask for betterment.
Overall, working and living in Jakarta (since it's so far the capital) is an enjoyable experience despite its heavy traffic issues and pollution getting worse these days.

Bhavna,
Though I can't help you in this regard, I wish you all the best.

I m looking forward working in Indonesia how I can get job in there how is the recruitment process over there .. I m trying online but no revert msg or any reply, how I can apply or search job in Indonesia

Trying to find a job in Indonesia is not easy, and probably easier if you are a western teacher or if you find a high level job through a headhunting company. That's not to say you won't find a job. If I were looking for a job I would not be looking in Indonesia.
