- Abstract
To improve foreign cash sources, the Indonesian government wants to assist economic growth through tourism. As a result, the government provides free short-term visas to foreign nationals. Immigration has an important part in a country's sovereignty since it is the major entry point. As stated in Article 1 number 1 of Law Number 6 of 2011, Immigration is an agency empowered to oversee the flow of individuals entering and departing Indonesian territory. According to UN figures as of April 2022, Indonesia is the fourth-most populous country in the world. With a population of 278,752,361, it accounts for 3.51% of the global population. Globalization, an expanding economy, and an expanding population have caused people to relocate to other nations. The influence of changes in the economic cycle varies by country. Of sure, it will lead to crime in each country. Criminality is problematic not just economically, but also politically, socially, and in terms of national security. In this regard, immigration must be selective in accepting foreign nationals into Indonesia in order to maintain the stability of state security from external threats, disturbances, and obstacles in order to maintain the sovereignty of the Indonesian state.
