Fee
IDR 500,000

Processing time
The e-VOA is issued on arrival (or pre-approved online before travel); the extension is processed online and is usually resolved within a few business days.
Required documents
- A national passport valid for at least 6 months
- Proof of a return or onward ticket to another country
- If you enter on an electronic visa on arrival (e-VOA): it costs IDR 500,000, is single-entry and allows a 30-day stay, extendable once for a further 30 days at an Immigration office for another IDR 500,000
Vaccinations
- No mandatory vaccines for general entry. A yellow fever certificate is required from travellers over 9 months of age arriving from a country with risk of transmission.
Transit rules
Maximum stay of 60 days with the e-VOA (initial 30 days + one 30-day extension).
Customs limits
- Cash
- Declare (form BC 2.2) if entering or leaving with IDR 100,000,000 or more in cash (or the equivalent in another currency); foreign currency worth IDR 1,000,000,000 or more additionally requires Bank Indonesia authorization.
- Alcohol
- 1 litre of alcoholic beverages per adult passenger, duty-free.
- Tobacco
- 200 cigarettes, or 25 cigars, or 100 grams of loose tobacco, duty-free.
Overstay penalties
IDR 1,000,000 per day of overstay up to 59 days (Government Regulation PP 28/2019 and Article 78(1) of Immigration Law 6/2011); from 60 days of overstay onward, deportation and an entry ban (blacklist), typically 6 months.
Common reasons for denial
- Giving incorrect information in the visa application: the immigration officer at the port of entry may refuse you entry on that basis, under Article 106 of Minister of Law and Human Rights Regulation No. 44 of 2015.
- Holding a passport that does not cover at least 6 months of validity from the date of arrival.
- What to accept before flying: the issuance of a visitor visa does NOT guarantee entry. The source says so itself — the visa only shows you are eligible to SEEK entry for a specific purpose; the decision remains with the immigration officer at the port of entry.
