Important

This information is for general guidance only. Meeting the requirements does not guarantee your application will be approved.

The steps below are the general shape of an Indonesia visa application. Your exact route and requirements depend on your nationality and the purpose of your visit, so always confirm against the official Directorate General of Immigration pages linked below.

Choose the right entry route

Check whether your nationality can enter visa-free, needs the Electronic Visa on Arrival (e-VoA), or should apply for the Visitor Visa (e-Visa). Start with the official Directorate General of Immigration guidance to identify the right route.

Apply online through the official portal

The Visitor Visa is applied for through evisa.imigrasi.go.id and the e-VoA through molina.imigrasi.go.id. Use only these official portals — third-party sites are not the government service.

Prepare your documents

Prepare the documents the official application asks for and make sure your passport is valid. The exact list depends on the route and your situation — follow the checklist on the official pages.

Extending the e-VoA

According to the Directorate General of Immigration, the e-VoA can be extended once for a further 30 days at an immigration office in Indonesia. Follow the official process if you need to extend your stay.
