JAKARTA - The Provincial Government of DKI Jakarta received 5,280 applications for issuance of Entry/Exit Permits (SIKM) from residents as of Wednesday, May 12. Some of the applications were rejected for a variety of reasons, including not meeting the criteria.
"Recorded SIKM applications submitted as many as 5,280 applications with 2,246 SIKM issued, 2,918 SIKM rejected, and 116 SIKM applications are still in the process of administrative research because newly submitted applicants", said the Head of the Investment and Integrated Services Office one door (DPMPTSP) DKI Jakarta Province Benni Aguscandra in his written statement quoted Thursday, May 13.
SIKM rejection occurs generally because the applicant is wrong in the submission, either when filling in the wrong applicant's data or the criteria of non-travel that is not allowed.
"Therefore, carefully reading and following all procedures carefully is key in the application of SIKM", he said.
Benni said SIKM licensing can be submitted by applicants for 24 hours every day. However, coinciding with holidays and holidays with Eid al-Fitr 1442 Hijri from May 12 to May 16, the research process will be conducted from 10.00 WIB to 16.00 WIB.
Even so, the application process can be completed by DPMPTSP officers of DKI Jakarta Province in a matter of hours.
"We continue to strive for faster processing of SIKM licensing or exceed expectations of predetermined service standards. During these two days, SKIM licensing processing time can be done by DPMPTSP officers of DKI Jakarta Province, in less than 3 hours", he said.
Previously reported, SIKM is a requirement for travelers to be allowed to travel outside the area during the Eid al-Fitr holiday ban this year.
SIKM holders during travel for non-medical purposes must bring PCR or antigen or GeNose swabs stating the negatives of COVID-19 and samples are taken within 1x24 hours prior to departure.
