The Batam Special Class I Immigration Checkpoint (TPI) Immigration Office together with the Riau Islands Police integrated e-Tilang data with the Immigration Information Management System (SIMKIM) to prevent Foreign Nationals who violate traffic rules (ticketed) from being obliged to pay the load fee. Through this data integration, officers at the Immigration Checkpoint (TPI) can see notifications of prevention applications from the police if foreigners commit traffic violations and have not paid the fine fee.
Foreigners who commit traffic violations will be subject to prevention with the Electronic Traffic Law Enforcement (ETLE) system based on the request of the Police. People who own vehicle rental services are urged to be more careful when renting their vehicles to foreigners. If the foreigner violates traffic rules, it will affect the vehicle owner subject to a ticket fine.

This is where Immigration takes a role in creating a conducive situation in the community, in addition to supporting economic growth through the ease of immigration services.
The Cooperation Agreement related to the integration of SIMKIM and e-Tilang data was made as a follow-up to the Memorandum of Understanding between the Indonesian Police and the Ministry of Law and Human Rights Number NK/3/2/2020 and Number M-HH-01.05.05 of 2020 concerning Optimization of Tasks, Functions in the Field of Law and Human Rights.
