What happens if I overstay my visa?

If you overstay your visa in Indonesia, you must pay an overstay fine of 1,000,000 IDR per day per person (around 65 USD). The payment must be made in cash at the airport or Immigration office when you leave the country.

You should plan an additional 20–30 minutes at the airport for the overstay procedure.

Important notes

• Short overstays (a few days) are usually handled quickly and result only in the standard fine.

• Very long overstays may lead to additional questioning, delays, further administrative actions or deportation.

• Paying the fine does not ban you from returning, as long as there are no other violations.

The best option is always to extend your visa before it expires to avoid unnecessary fees and delays.
