Kapanlagi.com - Starting November 1, 2024, there is good news as well as a new challenge for applicants of the Driver's License (SIM) throughout Indonesia. Now, to obtain a SIM, every applicant is required to show proof of active participation in BPJS Kesehatan. This policy is expected to encourage the public to be more aware of the importance of health protection.

With this new requirement, the government is committed to ensuring that all SIM applicants are registered as participants of the National Health Insurance (JKN). This is a strategic step in the government's effort to increase the number of JKN participants for better public health.

Before this policy is implemented nationally, trials have been conducted in seven regions, including Aceh, West Sumatra, DKI Jakarta, and Bali, from July 1 to September 30, 2024. The trial aims to test the effectiveness of the policy and provide a clear picture to the public about its implementation.

In the telegram letter from the Chief of Police Number ST/2355/X/YAN.1.1./2024, it is stated that BPJS Kesehatan participation becomes one of the administrative requirements in the issuance of SIM, in accordance with the Indonesian National Police Regulation (Perpol) Number 2 of 2023. This is a concrete step by the government to enhance health coverage for the entire community. So, get ready to register for a SIM with more benefits for your health.

1. Requirements for Obtaining a New Driver's License

To obtain a new driver's license, the public is required to prepare various important documents, including proof of BPJS Health participation, which is now a new requirement. The process begins with filling out a registration form at the service unit, followed by attaching a photocopy of a valid Identity Card (KTP) as identification.

In addition, applicants also need to include a certificate of education and driving training, as well as a verification letter of competence showing the results of the competency test. For foreign workers, a work permit from the Ministry of Manpower must also be included.

Don't forget, the results of the physical and mental health examination must also be attached to ensure eligibility. All these documents must be prepared carefully so that the driver's license application process goes smoothly!

2. Requirements for Driver's License Renewal

For those of you planning to renew your driver's license, there are several requirements that need to be prepared, although they are similar to the initial process. First, make sure you bring your old driver's license that is still valid. Don't forget to attach a photocopy of your ID card.

Next, prepare the results of the physical health examination and proof of passing the psychological test. Equally important, also include proof of active BPJS Health participation. Finally, prepare a recent passport photo with a bright blue background. With all these documents, your driver's license renewal process will go smoothly!

3. Cost of Obtaining a Driver's License (SIM)

For a new SIM, you will incur costs starting from Rp 50,000 for SIM D to Rp 120,000 for SIM A, A General, BI/General, and BII/General. Meanwhile, if you only need to renew your SIM, the cost is lighter, which is Rp 30,000 for SIM D and Rp 75,000 for SIM C, while for other types of SIM, you only need to pay Rp 80,000.
