Indonesia's government has reportedly guaranteed Mr Karma's security and freedom of speech once he leaves prison.
Late last week, he rejected an offer of remission on Indonesia's National Independence Day, which was two days ago, saying he would only accept an unconditional release.
Mr Karma has been serving a 15-year jail sentence for treason in Papua's Abepura Prison, after he raised the banned Morning Star flag at a political rally in 2004.
He said he would be happy to walk free the day after National Day, as long as his release was "unconditional".
