Indonesia e-Visa

Indonesia e-Visa General Information

The Indonesian e-Visa (also known as Indonesian e-VoA) is a type of electronic visa on arrival issued for short-term travel. The online visa program was introduced by the Indonesian Government in 2020 to encourage more tourists to visit the country and facilitate the visa application procedure.

There are three types of Indonesian e-Visa available – they vary in the guaranteed validity period, allowing you for short-term travel related to tourism, business, or transit. Apply online for a suitable visa and enjoy going on sightseeing tours, meeting with relatives, negotiating contracts, and taking part in conferences.

The Indonesia e-VoA online application is a very intuitive process. If you wish to obtain an Indonesian visa, you must complete the application form with relevant data, submit the documents required for processing, and make the mandatory payment for visa processing. It can all be done from the comfort of your home.

When your Indonesian visa is approved, it will be delivered in digital form to your e-mail address. However, the approval notice is not yet an official visa. On arrival to Indonesia, you must present the immigration officers with your valid passport and visa confirmation in order to obtain a special visa stamp.

Who needs an e-Visa to Indonesia?

All foreign travelers who wish to visit Indonesia for purposes of tourism, business, or transit should obtain a suitable visa. Many nationalities are considered eligible for an Indonesian visa on arrival online. But others should apply for a regular visa at the nearest Embassy.

Keep in mind that citizens of the ASEAN countries (Brunei, Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Vietnam) and Timor-Leste are allowed to travel to Indonesia visa-free. They can spend up to 30 days in the country.
