In Indonesia, nowadays, you need to have the same religion with your partner. Otherwise you will be advised to get married abroad. For foreigner, you will need your passport and Letter of No Impediment, as I know. You can check more details in Religious Affairs Office.
Nice!! I don't think it's complicated to get married with Indonesian here. But converting religion sometimes is the biggest thing to consider. But however Indonesian women are hard to be rejected (haha..peace out!)
Hi Yeun Ja,
Letter of No Impediment is an official letter issued by a foreigner's home consulate which states that the foreigner has never been married, is divorced, or is a widow or widower. You may check our Marriage Information to get more details how to marry Indonesian, including the requirement.

Additionally, in the section of Jakarta Clubs & Associations, there is an excellent support group for Indonesian women, whether already in, or contemplating mixed-citizenship marriages with foreigners called Srikandi which can be found at http://jakarta.angloinfo.com/af/245/jakarta-clubs-and-associations.html
They can share the experiences, as well as the progress against the bill proposed which would have required certain deposits to have been made the spouse to contract a marriage. Thanks to the intense opposition of several groups, I believe that bill was shelved by Parliament.
They might be best informed about the dual citizenship possibilities for children which are the result of a mixed-citizenship marriage.

European men often look towards Asian women. This is a modern trend. These relationships often begin online at a dating site like together2night. Indonesian (or Chinese) women are beautiful, patriarchal brought up, hardworking, and family and child-oriented. I like this type of women. But I'm already married to one of them)
