How the official process works

1

Use the official Indonesia Immigration portal to select the visa route that matches your nationality and travel purpose.

2

If eligible, complete the eVOA or e-Visa application online with your passport, photo, and trip information.

3

Pay only through the official portal and keep the issued approval or confirmation accessible before you depart.

4

Travel with passport, onward-travel proof, and the visa or eVOA confirmation shown in the official system.

Planning notes before you submit

Indonesia offers different entry routes depending on nationality, so do not assume that all Bali travelers use the same process.

Onward or return proof can be checked by the airline or immigration officer even when the visa step feels simple.

If you plan to extend your stay or change your purpose of visit, confirm that rule on the official portal before travel.
