Visa Extension

Visa on Arrival (index B-213)

This visa can be obtained directly when you arrive at certain airports and seaports in Indonesia for purposes of tourist, social, business or official visit. The maximum stay permitted for a Visa on Arrival is 30 days. It can be extended once for another 30 days.

Visa on Arrival is not applicable during COVID.

If you are situated in Indonesia, you can apply a new e-Visa ONSHORE.

The general requirements for visa on arrival are:

1. Expiration date of the applicant's passport must be at least 6 (six) months at the date of entry.

2. Round-trip airplane ticket.

3. Fees IDR 500.000

The fee must be paid in cash; no credit cards are accepted for visa fees on arrival at the airport. If you don’t have cash, the staff will hold your passport and let you visit an ATM. But ideally you should bring IDR or order the visas before you arrive through a commercial "Meet and Assist" service provider so you won’t need cash or have to queue for it. Limited other currencies may be accepted, but the exchange rate to IDR is not a favorable rate.
