The Regional Child Protection Commission, or KPAD, is a regional institution focused on child protection. For foreign nationals living in Bali, the institution handles child-protection issues and the fulfillment of children’s rights, not direct changes to visa rules, residence permits, or immigration services.

The candidates had passed several stages before taking the fit-and-proper test, including a written test, psychological test, interview, paper presentation, and in-depth material assessment. The results are scheduled to be submitted by the Bali House of Representatives to the Governor of Bali on October 22, 2026.

The announcement of the five selected Bali Regional Child Protection Commission members for the 2026–2031 term is scheduled for October 26, 2026.
