What is the Visa on Arrival (VoA) for Bali?
The Visa on Arrival (VoA) allows eligible travelers from certain countries to stay in Indonesia for up to 30 days, extendable for another 30 days. It costs approximately IDR 500,000 (around USD 35) and can be obtained at major entry points like Ngurah Rai International Airport in Bali.
Can I extend my stay in Bali beyond 30 days?
Yes! The VoA can be extended once for an additional 30 days at a local immigration office in Bali (e.g., in Denpasar). For longer stays, consider applying for a Visit Visa (B211A) before arrival, which allows up to 60 days, extendable up to 180 days total.
What documents do I need to apply for a Bali visa?
For VoA: a passport valid for at least 6 months and a return/onward ticket. For B211A: passport copy, proof of funds (e.g., bank statement), sponsor letter, recent photo, and sometimes proof of vaccination (check current requirements).
How long does it take to process a visa for Bali?
VoA is issued instantly upon arrival. The B211A visa typically takes 5-10 business days when applied through the official e-Visa portal or an agent, assuming all documents are complete.
Where can I get the latest visa updates for Bali?
Check the official Indonesian Immigration website (imigrasi.go.id) or contact the Indonesian embassy in your country. Rules can change, especially post-pandemic, so verify before you travel!
Can I enter Bali multiple times on the same visa?
No, both VoA and B211A are single-entry visas. For multiple entries, you’d need a Multiple Entry Visit Visa, which is harder to obtain and typically for business purposes.
Can I work remotely in Bali as a digital nomad?
Technically, tourist visas (including VoA and visa-free entry) don’t permit work, even remote work for a foreign company. However, enforcement is lax for digital nomads. For legal remote work, consider the B211A visa or the upcoming Digital Nomad Visa (still in development as of 2025).
Do I need a visa to visit Bali, Indonesia?
It depends on your nationality and purpose of visit. Citizens of over 160 countries can enter Indonesia visa-free for up to 30 days for tourism, including Bali. Check the latest list of visa-exempt countries on the official Indonesian Immigration website or contact your local Indonesian embassy.
What happens if I overstay my visa in Bali?
Overstaying incurs a fine of IDR 1,000,000 (about USD 70) per day. You’ll need to pay this at immigration when leaving, and repeated overstays could lead to deportation or entry bans.
