1. PASSPORT:
Your passport must have at least two blank pages and be valid for at least six months beyond the date of your departure from Indonesia. If your passport does not meet these requirements, you will be denied entry.
2. VISA:
Visa-on-Arrival: You can apply for a visa on arrival at some international airports. To apply for the visa on arrival, you must have an ordinary (non-emergency) passport with at least 6 months of validity from the date you plan to leave Indonesia and a return or onward flight booking to another country. It cost around 500,000 Indonesian Rupiah (about $35). The visa on arrival is valid for up to 30 days.
Electronic Visa-On-Arrival: You may also apply for an electronic Visa on Arrival (e-VOA) in advance if you are entering Indonesia at Bali Denpasar International Airport (DPS). Check the e-VOA requirements from Indonesian Immigration before applying. To apply for an e-VOA, see https://evisa.imigrasi.go.id/. Apply up to 14 days before travel.

3. TOURIST LEVY FEE:
All international visitors to Bali will be required to pay 150,000 IDR (approximately 10 USD) on arrival.
Before arrival: This one-time payment is required prior to entry, whether by land, sea, or air. Guests can pre-pay by card, bank transfer, or with virtual accounts via the official website (https://lovebali.baliprov.go.id/).
Upon arrival: You can also pay on arrival by credit card; however, to avoid any delays, Discover Corps recommends the prepayment option. This fee is different from the VOA (electronic visa-on-arrival) fee.
A digital receipt will be issued post-payment and must be presented at various checkpoints throughout the stay. This receipt remains valid for the entire duration of the visit to Indonesia, even if travelers exit and re-enter Bali.
4. ALL INDONESIA ARRIVAL CARD - MUST BE COMPLETED BEFORE YOUR FLIGHT TO BALI
The Indonesian government is launching a new ‘All Indonesia’ digital arrival card system to simplify the international arrival process. Effective 1 September 2025, the new platform streamlines customs and health procedures, combining the previously separate customs and health declaration forms.
Here is a simple, step-by-step guide for you to complete the process:
Note: All international passengers travelling to Indonesia will be required to complete the All Indonesia application before departure (from 3 days prior up to the day of departure) in their country of origin.
You should register on the official website: https://allindonesia.imigrasi.go.id/ or via the app available on Google Play & App Store. Change the language to English on the top right.

Please note that this arrival card is not for the Visa on Arrival or the Bali Tourist Tax, those remain separate processes.
The passport of people traveling to Indonesia needs to be valid for at least 6 months on the day of arrival.
If you do not have a passport it is important to apply for one as soon as possible. It often takes four to six weeks to process the paperwork for a passport (and even longer during the peak travel season of March to August). For questions about obtaining or renewing your passport (American citizens) you can click here.
If you have a passport, please note it needs to be valid for up to 6 months after your scheduled departure date.
It is also important that you have at least one completely blank page (with no stamps or visas) in your passport. This is a requirement for entry into many countries.
If you are a U.S. citizen and need assistance with obtaining a new passport, we recommend working with G3 Visas and Passports to make the process smooth and easy.
*Note: Make several photocopies of your passport. Leave a copy at home with your family and carry a copy with you at all times when you are overseas. If you should lose your passport, having a copy will speed up the process of replacing it.
