Immigration violations in tourist areas frequently occur, ranging from misuse of stay permits, misuse of visitor visas for work, to the involvement of foreign nationals in general crimes. The increasingly popular digital nomad trend also presents new challenges, as some foreign nationals work remotely without proper permits. Based on the background of the problems outlined above, the author formulates the following research questions: How is immigration supervision implemented for foreigners to prevent misuse of stay permits for work within the Immigration Office's jurisdiction? What are the obstacles encountered in implementing immigration supervision for foreigners within the Ngurah Rai TPI Immigration Office's jurisdiction? The relevant legal research for the title "Implementation of Immigration Supervision for Foreigners to Prevent Misuse of Stay Permits for Work within the Immigration Office's jurisdiction" is empirical legal research with a sociological approach. The results of this research indicate that immigration supervision for foreigners to prevent misuse of stay permits for work within the Immigration Office's jurisdiction is carried out through integrated administrative and field supervision. Obstacles encountered in implementing immigration supervision of foreigners in the Ngurah Rai Immigration Office include the limited number of supervisory officers compared to the high mobility and number of foreigners entering Bali. Keywords: Abuse, Foreigners, Residence Permits.
