What is an Indonesia Visa and Who Needs one?

An Indonesian visa is an official entry permit issued by the Indonesian authorities which allows foreign nationals to enter the country for tourism, business, transit, study, work or long stay purposes. Multiple visa options are available – including Tourist Visa, Business Visa, e-Visa (e-VOA), Visa on Arrival, Work Visa and residence permits and each option includes the duration of stay and activities allowed.

An Indonesian visa is needed if the applicant’s nationality is not eligible for visa exemption, if the duration of stay is longer than the period allowed by the visa-free or Visa on Arrival policies or if the reason for travel is beyond tourism purposes to include employment, education, relocation, or frequent business travel.
