How Long Can You Stay?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThe C1 Tourist Visa gives you 60 hari<\/strong> upfront. That\u2019s already double what you\u2019d get with a Visa on Arrival.<\/p>\n\n\n\nBut here\u2019s the best part: you can extend it two more times<\/strong>, and each extension adds another 60 hari<\/strong>. That means you can stay in Indonesia for up to 180 days<\/strong>, without having to leave the country and come back.<\/p>\n\n\n\nSo, if you\u2019re dreaming of spending a few months in Bali, Java, Lombok, or beyond, this visa gives you room to breathe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
How Do You Apply?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThe C1 Tourist Visa can be obtained through an online application process, allowing travelers to apply from anywhere conveniently.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
There are two simple ways to apply:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
1. Apply Online Yourself<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nYou can apply directly on the official e-Visa website<\/strong> from anywhere in the world. To start your application, you will need to create an account on the official e-Visa portal. The site lets you upload your documents, pay the fee, and receive your visa by email in about 3\u20135 working days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n2. Use a Trusted Visa Agent<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\nDo you want some help with the visa process? We get it. Dealing with forms, deadlines, and paperwork can feel overwhelming.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Reach out to our team, and we\u2019ll walk you through the next steps.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
What Documents Do You Need?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nTo get started, make sure you have:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- A passport<\/strong> that\u2019s valid for at least 6 more months<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- A clear photo<\/strong> (passport-style, taken recently)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Proof of funds, usually around USD 2,000<\/strong> in your bank account<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- A return or onward flight ticket<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
- A valid email address<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
- A credit or debit card<\/strong> for the payment<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
How Much Does It Cost?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nHere\u2019s a quick breakdown:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- If you apply on your own, the official fee is usually IDR 1,500,000<\/strong> (around $95\u2013100 USD<\/strong>)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- If you go through an agent, like Visa-Indonesia, expect to pay IDR 2,300,000\u20133,000,000<\/strong> or more, depending on the services they include (like fast-tracking or handling extensions)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
While it\u2019s more than a Visa on Arrival, you\u2019re getting more time and flexibility in return.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Can You Extend It?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nYes, and it\u2019s simple, as long as you plan ahead. Each extension gives you an extra 60 hari<\/strong>, and you can do this twice. To extend, you (or your agent) will need to visit a local immigration office with:<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n- awak passport<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
- awak visa copy<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
- A few supporting documents (your agent can help with these)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
Make sure to apply at least a week before your current stay period ends. It gives immigration time to process everything smoothly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Why Choose the C1 Visa?<\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\nThe C1 Tourist Visa is perfect if you:<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n- Want to stay in Indonesia for more than 30\u201360 days<\/strong><\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Prefer to avoid the hassle<\/strong> of visa runs or last-minute extensions<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Plan to visit multiple islands or take your time exploring<\/li>\n\n\n\n
- Value peace of mind<\/strong> knowing your visa can be extended without leaving the country<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n
It\u2019s also a great choice if you’re visiting family, attending wellness retreats, or just working on your tan without checking your calendar every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Onward Ticket Requirements<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nNo matter if you\u2019re coming to Indonesia with a Tourist Visa C1, a Visa on Arrival (B1), or an e-VOA, you\u2019ll need to show an onward or return ticket when you arrive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This is how immigration makes sure visitors don\u2019t stay longer than they\u2019re allowed. So before your flight, make sure you\u2019ve booked a return trip home, or a ticket to another country. If you don\u2019t have one, you could get stopped at the airport. Some travelers even get told to buy a ticket right there on the spot, which can be stressful and expensive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
If you\u2019re using a C1 visa, you\u2019ll usually need to show your onward ticket when you apply. If you\u2019re coming in with a VoA or e-VOA, immigration officers will check your ticket when you land.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To keep things simple and smooth, just have your onward or return ticket ready before your trip. It\u2019s an easy step that helps you follow the rules and avoid problems at the airport.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Visa Exemption and Requirements<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\nIndonesia offers visa exemption and a Visa on Arrival for foreign nationals from select countries visiting for leisure purposes. When you arrive at an Indonesian immigration checkpoint, you\u2019ll receive an entry stamp that serves as proof of your Visit Visa Exemption or Visa on Arrival.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
ASEAN countries eligible for visa-free entry to Indonesia include Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia, Philippines, Singapore, Thailand, Timor Leste, and Vietnam. Visa-free entry allows citizens of these countries to stay in Indonesia for up to 30 days without a visa, but restrictions may apply depending on nationality and travel purpose.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
To qualify, you\u2019ll need to meet a few basic requirements: a passport valid for at least six months, a return or onward ticket, and enough funds to support your stay. If you\u2019re not eligible for a Visa Exemption or Visa on Arrival, you\u2019ll need to apply for a visit visa through a sponsor in Indonesia. Sponsors can include corporations, travel agents, or hotels that are registered in the country.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This system ensures that all foreign nationals have a clear path to enter Indonesia, whether through visa exemption, visa on arrival, or a sponsored visa application. Travelers sometimes visit other countries such as Malaysia or Singapore for short trips or visa runs before returning to Indonesia.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
