EPS-TOPIK for Indonesian Applicants: The G to G Korea Program
Government to government only
Indonesia sends EPS workers to Korea through the G to G (Government to Government) Korea program. It is run by the ministry for the protection of Indonesian migrant workers, KemenP2MI — the successor of the agency BP2MI, whose name still appears on some official pages and on the registration portal (checked 2026-08-24). Announcements are published at kp2mi.go.id and bp2mi.go.id, and registration is online at siskop2mi.bp2mi.go.id. No agent, sponsor or training school is part of the selection.
