I am German, planning to apply from Indonesia.

When asked for HOME ADDRESS I believe I should provide my address in Germany, correct?

It then asks "Is your permanent address same as your current address?", which it is not, so I believe I should be providing my German permanent address as well as the current address (in Indonesia?)

But in both cases it says HOME ADDRESS. So I am confused what to enter where.

Could someone help me out, pls?

TLDR : Answer Summary
When applying for a visa from Indonesia, you should provide your current address in Indonesia as your 'home address' on the application. The second part of the question regarding whether your permanent address is the same as your current address allows you to provide your permanent address in Germany. Therefore, you will be entering two different addresses: your accommodation in Indonesia and your permanent address in Germany.

Die erste Adresse ist wo du dich gerade befindest. Indonesien wurde ja schon als Land vorgegeben, weil du dich in Indonesien bewirbst. Das 2. ist deine deutsche Adresse.

Hat mich auch verwirrt. 😁

The first address defaults to the country that you are applying from so you should put your accommodation in Indonesia first and then your permanent address (2nd one) as Germany
