The Directorate General of Land Transportation of the Ministry of Transportation has officially prepared the 2026 Lebaran Free Homecoming Programme with a total of 401 buses. This programme is designed to accommodate 15,834 passengers in order to reduce the use of motorcycles on highways, which pose a high risk.

The Director General of Land Transportation, Aan Suhanan, stated that registration will open on 1st March 2026. “Registration will be carried out online via the nusantara.kemenhub.go.id website and will be closed as soon as the quota is met,” he said in an official statement in Jakarta.

The Ministry of Transportation has set the following schedule for the departure of the homecoming and return flows:

Important Note: The handover of motorcycles for the homecoming flow will take place on 16th March 2026 at the Pondok Cabe Terminal before departure that evening.

This year’s homecoming programme serves 34 destination cities in 10 provinces. Here are the details:

Follow these steps to successfully obtain a quota:

Given that the system used is first-come, first-served, make sure you already have an account on the Nusantara Hub portal before 1st March. Also, ensure that documents such as your ID card and family card photos are less than 500kb in size to avoid technical problems during the upload process.

The Ministry of Transportation also confirmed that all bus fleets have passed the ramp check or safety inspection stage to ensure the safety of passengers until they arrive at their hometown.

No, all registrations must be made via the official website nusantara.kemenhub.go.id to ensure transparency and prevent data duplication.

Usually, one account can register a maximum of 4 people in one Family Card (KK). Make sure all NIK data is correct.

You can choose the Free Motorcycle Homecoming service. The Ministry of Transportation is preparing 8 trucks with a capacity of 240 motorcycles for the Solo, Yogyakarta, Wonogiri, and Purwokerto routes. (Z-10)

Registration for the free homecoming programme has been opened from 24th February 2026 to 6th March 2026 at the Asia Afrika Pedestrian Bridge.

REGISTRATION for the 2026 DKI Jakarta Provincial Government Free Homecoming programme, the second cluster, officially opened today, Wednesday, 25th February 2026.

The Motis programme, which has been running since 2014, has only accommodated less than 1 percent of motorcycle travellers, making it less effective in reducing traffic congestion.

This step is taken as a form of public service and social concern to ensure that people can return to their hometowns safely, orderly, and in an organised manner in the lead-up to Eid al-Fitr.
