Dear Sir/Madam,

I am writing to request permission for conducting research in Indonesia. As a foreign researcher, I am aware of the Indonesian regulation (Govt. Regulation no. 41/ 2006) requiring all foreign researchers to obtain an official permit from the Indonesian authority in advance, i.e. The Indonesia Ministry of Research and Technology (RISTEK).

I understand that the Indonesia Ministry of Research and Technology has launched a full-online system through http://frp.ristek.go.id for all required procedures. Therefore, I have registered myself with the said system and will carry out all communication and procedures required online.

In this regard, I am sending a formal letter of request to do research in Indonesia to RISTEK, a copy of which is addressed to the Indonesian Embassy in London. Moreover, I request a letter of recommendation from the Indonesian Embassy in London explicitly stating its address.

I shall be grateful if you could expedite the processing of my application as I intend to commence my research as soon as possible. Should you require any additional information or documentation, please do not hesitate to contact me.

Thank you for your time and assistance.

Sincerely,
