Steps to Renounce Indonesian Citizenship in Singapore

At this point, I believe you have received the Approval Letter from ICA. CONGRATULATIONS!

Things to take note before going down to Indonesia Embassy:

1. Make declaration to renounce Indonesian citizenship by Notary Public
   Bring the following documents:
   - ICA Approval Letter
   - Passport
   - SBKRI (Indonesian Citizenship Certificate) if any
   - Birth Certificate
   - Family Household Card (Kartu Keluarga)
   - KTP
   - Re-Entry Permit (Form 7)
   - Copy of Spouse's  Sg IC/Passport
   - Copy of Marriage Cert
   
   Do let them know if you don't have any of the documents with you. As for my case, I don't have SBKRI because I was born as Indonesian, not like my parents who have SBKRI because they were then WNA before converting to WNI.
   
   The Notary Public I used is
   Tan, Lee & Choo Advocates & Solicitors
   1 Park Road #04-04
   People's Park Complex
   Singapore 059108
   
   Tel: 65356077
   
   The cost is $176.75 (all inclusive gst etc) based on 04/12/2015. It is advisable to make appointment, to avoid disappointment. I was lucky that day, as I walked-in to do the declaration letter. I was served by Donna, very kind and friendly lady. You may look for her for your paper work.
   NOTE: It is open on Saturday too!! So, you can save your leave to do this. :D
   
   While sorting the documents, I was given a renunciation form to fill up my particulars etc. Please don't write the date or sign it , as you need to sign on the Materai (stamp duty).
   
   They offer to do Deed Poll (name change), just in case you wish to add you Chinese Name :)
   The fee will be $150 (all inclusive gst etc).
2. The Declaration must be legalized by Singapore Academy of Law (SAL) located at 1 Supreme Court Lane, Singapore 178879 Tel: 63324388 Fax: 63344940
