Pre-Investment Visa Indonesia (D12)

Yes. You can purchase multiple visas in one order.

Simply add all visas, whether they are the same visa type or different types, to your shopping cart and proceed to checkout. This allows you to complete everything in one single payment.

Yes. If you don’t have all the required documents ready when you apply, that’s no problem. You can simply send the missing documents later via WhatsApp or email.

After placing your order, you will receive our contact details by email (please also check your spam folder).

Please note:
We can only process and submit your visa application once we have received all the required documents and your payment. Submitting everything as early as possible helps prevent delays.

No vaccinations are required to apply for a visa or to enter Indonesia. COVID-19 vaccination is no longer required since July 3rd, 2023.

However, some optional travel vaccinations are commonly recommended by international travel health authorities, depending on your itinerary, length of stay, and travel style. These include:

• Hepatitis A

• Tetanus (standard booster)

• Polio booster

• Typhoid (recommended for longer trips or rural areas)

• Hepatitis B

• Rabies (if spending time in rural areas or around animals)

• Japanese Encephalitis (for extended stays in rural regions or rice-field areas)

No, you do not need to visit our office.

The entire visa application is handled online. We only need scans or clear photos of your required documents, which you can upload directly via our online application form. You can complete everything comfortably from home.

Yes. Completing the All Indonesia Arrival Card, which includes the customs declaration and health form, is mandatory for all travelers entering Indonesia.

You can fill out the Arrival Card up to 3 days (72 hours) before arrival.

If you haven’t completed it in advance, you can still fill it out at the airport, but you may experience longer waiting times. To ensure a smoother arrival, we recommend completing the form before your trip.

Yes. Every person traveling to Indonesia needs a visa — without exception. This includes children, infants, and senior citizens.

If you are unsure which visa is right for you or your family, you can use the Visa Finder on our homepage. It shows you the correct visa type within just a few seconds.

The required passport validity depends on your visa type and your situation. You can find the exact requirement in the “Requirements” section of each visa type.

Standard Tourist Visas

Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months on the date of your arrival in Indonesia. This 6-month validity is also required when applying for a visa extension.

Long-term visas (1 year or more)

For visas with a longer validity period, Immigration may require 18 months or more of passport validity.

Replacement or Temporary Travel Documents

If you enter Indonesia with a replacement travel document, you must have:

• 12 months passport validity, and

• a valid residence permit

at the time of entry.

Summary

• 6 months → eVOA, C1, C6, … & extensions

• 12 months → entry with replacement/temporary travel document

• 18+ months → long-term visas (1 year+)

If your passport is close to expiring, it’s strongly recommended to renew it before applying.

Rejections are very rare.

In our experience, we have not had a single case where a visa application was rejected, as long as all requirements were met and the applicant provided accurate information.

When can a visa be rejected?

A rejection usually only occurs in exceptional cases, such as:

• The applicant is listed on the Indonesian immigration blacklist

• Previous violations of Indonesian immigration or criminal law

• An outstanding international arrest warrant

• Providing false information or forged documents

For standard applicants who meet the official visa requirements, the visa is normally approved without issues.

If you do not complete the All Indonesia Arrival Card (customs declaration), you may face:

• Delays at Immigration and Customs

• Fines (in cases of undeclared restricted items)

• Confiscation of items that should have been declared

Accurate completion of the Arrival Card is essential for a smooth entry into Indonesia.

If you haven’t filled out the Arrival Card before your trip, you can still complete it upon arrival at the airport in Indonesia. However, queues can be long, so we strongly recommend filling it out before your departure.

No problem. You can send the missing documents later via WhatsApp or email.

Please note that we can only start processing your visa once we have received:

1. All required documents, and

2. Your payment

Until everything is complete, the application cannot be submitted to Immigration.
Sending your documents as soon as possible helps avoid delays.

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.

You can submit your documents after placing your order.

How it works:

1. Place your order on our website.

2. Right after checkout, you’ll automatically receive a digital application form.

3. In this form, you can upload your documents, passport scan, and personal details.

Didn’t see the form?

You’ll also receive the link to the form via email.

→ Please check your inbox and spam folder.

Yes, you can change your information as long as the QR code has not been scanned at Immigration.

If you completed the Arrival Card yourself

Simply fill out the entire form again. The newest version will replace the old one.

If you booked the Arrival Card through us

You can inform us of any changes up to 4 days before your arrival, and we will update it for you.

It is essential that you present an Arrival Card with the correct information when entering Indonesia.

If your visa has already expired, you must expect to pay an overstay fine of 1,000,000 IDR per person per day.

The fine must be paid in cash at the airport or at the Immigration Office when you leave Indonesia. It’s important to plan a bit of extra time for the payment process.

Longer overstays can lead to more serious consequences, such as:

• Complications with future visa applications

• Deportation

• Entry bans

What should you do now?

✔ 1. If your visa type can still be extended

Start the extension process immediately.
Whether an extension is still possible depends on your visa type and how long you have overstayed.

✔ 2. If an extension is not possible

Leave Indonesia as soon as possible to minimize the overstay fine and avoid further consequences.

Important:

The longer you remain in Indonesia without a valid visa, the higher the risk of:

• increased fines

• administrative issues

• immigration investigations

If you are unsure whether your visa can still be extended, contact us, and we will assess your options.

When entering Indonesia, travellers are allowed to bring certain goods duty-free, up to the limits set by Indonesian Customs.

1. Personal goods

You may bring personal items with a total value of up to USD 500 per person without paying import duties.

Families travelling together can combine their allowance (e.g., USD 500 × number of family members).

2. Tobacco products

You may bring one of the following duty-free:

• 200 cigarettes, or

• 25 cigars, or

• 100 grams of sliced tobacco

These limits cannot be combined (e.g., cigarettes + cigars).

3. Alcohol

Each traveller may bring up to 1 liter of alcoholic beverages duty-free.

4. Important notes

• If you exceed the duty-free allowances, you must declare the items and may have to pay import duties/taxes.

• Customs rules may occasionally change — if your quantities are close to the limit, it’s safer to double-check the latest regulations.

Here are the current entry requirements for entering Indonesia (including Bali):

1. Passport (very important)

To enter Indonesia, you need a passport or a valid travel document (temporary passport or emergency passport). Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months on the day of entry or on the day of visa extension. Different rules may apply to other travel documents.

Without sufficient passport validity, entry will be denied.

2. Visa

A visa is required to enter Indonesia.

For short trips, you can buy the Visa on Arrival directly at the airport.
However, we recommend applying for the e-Visa on Arrival (eVOA) in advance to save time and avoid long queues. If you stay more than 30 days, there are even better visa options like the C1 visa.

3. Outbound (onward) ticket

When checking in for your flight to Indonesia, you may be asked to show proof of a return or onward ticket. If you cannot present one, you may be denied boarding or entry.

4. All Indonesia Arrival Card

Since September 1, 2025, Indonesia has introduced the All Indonesia Arrival Card — a digital form that replaces previous customs and health declarations. You can add the Arrival Card through us, or you can complete it yourself, no earlier than 72 hours before arrival.

5. Love Bali Tourist Tax (Bali only)

Visitors to Bali must pay the Love Bali Tourism Tax of 150,000 IDR (approx. 10 USD).

Payment options:

• Pay online in advance (credit cards sometimes fail), or

• Pay directly at the airport upon arrival

You can also find the entry requirements here: Entry Requirements Indonesia

Here is the complete process for submitting a new visa application with us:

1. Place your order

You can add multiple visas to your cart and check out together if you are applying for several people.

2. Pay the visa fee

Make the payment using the available payment methods.

3. Complete the online application form

Upload all required data and documents, such as:

• Passport biodata page

• Profile photo

• Flight ticket (if needed)

• Personal details

4. We prepare all required supporting documents

If your visa type requires it, we will provide:

• Guarantor/sponsor letter

• Bank statements

• Any additional documents needed for approval

5. We check and submit your application

We verify all information, ensure everything complies with Immigration requirements, and then submit your visa application to Indonesian Immigration.

6. Receive your visa by email

Once your visa is approved, you will receive it directly by email.
You can enter Indonesia with the digital visa (no physical label required).

Indonesia distinguishes between prohibited items (not allowed at all) and restricted items (allowed only under specific conditions, limits, or with a declaration).

🚫 Prohibited items (not allowed under any circumstances)

You may not bring the following items into Indonesia:

• Narcotics and illegal drugs

• Firearms and air guns

• Sharp weapons (unless declared for specific purposes)

• Ammunition

• Explosives or explosive materials

• Pornographic materials

Bringing prohibited items can lead to confiscation, fines, detention, or criminal charges.

⚠️ Restricted items (allowed with declaration, limits, or permits)

These items may be brought into Indonesia, but only under certain rules:

1. Animals, fish, plants & biological products

Require permits from Indonesian authorities (e.g., quarantine, health certificates).

2. Cash amounts over IDR 100,000,000

Must be declared to Customs.

3. Exciseable goods (alcohol & tobacco)

Allowed only within duty-free limits.
Above limits → declaration + import duty.

4. Personal goods beyond exemption limits

Items exceeding the duty-free allowance must be declared and taxed.

5. Commercial goods

Require customs clearance and often import permits.

6. Re-imported or temporarily imported goods

May require a declaration, proof of ownership, or temporary import documentation.

If you are unsure whether your item is restricted, it is always safer to declare it.

You will receive your visa as a PDF file with a QR code, sent to your email. If preferred, we can also send it to you via WhatsApp.

Your visa is electronically linked to your passport, and it will be automatically recognized when your passport is scanned at Immigration.

A printed copy is usually not required, but we recommend keeping one as a backup.

All Indonesian e-visas can be issued no earlier than 90 days before your planned entry date.

Once your visa is issued, you have 90 days to enter Indonesia. If you do not enter within these 90 days, the visa automatically expires and becomes invalid.

After you enter Indonesia, the initial visa validity period (e.g., 30 days, 60 days, etc.) starts from the day of arrival.

Once your visa is approved, you have 90 days to enter Indonesia. This means you should not apply earlier than 90 days before your arrival date.

Example:
If you plan to visit Bali in mid-April, you should not apply before mid- or late January.

Please also consider the processing time for your visa type so we can issue your visa on time.

If you are unsure about the best moment to apply, feel free to contact us.
Depending on availability, we can also process some visa types faster.

❌ Countries NOT eligible for a Single-Entry Visa

Passport holders from the following countries are not eligible:

It depends on the visa type.

1. e-Visa on Arrival (e-VOA)

Yes — the e-Visa on Arrival can be extended by yourself.
You must visit the Immigration Office once for:

• biometrics (photo, fingerprints if required)

• data verification

2. Single-Entry Visas (C1, C2, C6, etc.)

A sponsor is required for the extension. As a visa agency, we can act as your official sponsor and handle the process for you.

A personal visit to the Immigration Office is still required.

3. Multiple-Entry Visas (D1, D2, D12)

Multiple-entry visas also require a sponsor for the extension.
We can be your sponsor and manage the process.

A personal visit to Immigration is required for each extension.

4. KITAS

KITAS extensions also require a sponsor (employer, organization, or agency).
You cannot extend a KITAS on your own.

No. A fully online visa extension is no longer possible in Indonesia.

Even though parts of the process are handled digitally, every visa extension requires at least one personal visit to the Immigration Office.
During this appointment, Immigration will:

• take your photo (biometrics)

• take fingerprints

• verify your personal data

• may ask a few questions

The rest of the extension process can be managed online through us.

Normally, you do not need to leave your passport at the Immigration Office. You bring it to your appointment and take it back immediately.

But if your passport is temporarily at Immigration for any reason (e.g., a special process or administrative request), you can still fly domestically within Indonesia.

To fly without your physical passport, you will need:

• a scan/photo of your passport, and

• an official letter from Immigration confirming that your passport is currently with them

We can request and provide this letter for you.
Please contact the responsible colleague so we can assist you.

Normally, you do not need to leave your passport at the Immigration Office. You bring it to your appointment and take it back immediately.

But if your passport is temporarily at Immigration for any reason, you can still move freely within Bali without any issues.

For safety, we recommend carrying:

• a printed copy of your passport, or

• a digital scan/photo of your passport on your smartphone

This is usually sufficient for identification if needed.

Yes. For all visa extensions, one (1) personal visit to the nearest Immigration Office in Indonesia is required.

During this visit, Immigration will:

• take your photo (biometrics)

• take fingerprints

• verify your personal data

• may take a short interview

You do not need to visit our office, only the Immigration Office.

There is no fully online visa extension anymore.
​

However, the process is still partly digital and you do not need to visit our office or hand over your physical passport.

How the extension works now:

   (passport biodata page, current visa, address, etc.)

4. Immigration will schedule a mandatory in-person appointment for you at the Immigration Office.
   At this appointment, you will complete:

   Your passport does not stay at Immigration.

The remaining processing is done online, and your approved extension will be issued digitally.

Your passport must be valid for at least 6 months at the time of the extension.
If your passport has less than 6 months remaining, Immigration will not process your extension.

For some visa types (especially longer-term visas), a longer validity period may be required.

Please check the “Requirements” section of the specific visa you are applying for.

Tip: If your passport is close to expiring, renew it before starting your trip to avoid delays or rejection.

There are no pick-up or delivery costs, because passport collection is no longer required for visa extensions in Indonesia.

We only need scans/photos of your documents. The only time you need your physical passport is during your personal visit to the Immigration office.

After the appointment, you take your passport back with you immediately. Your passport does not stay at Immigration.

You do not need to leave your passport at Immigration.

You only bring it for your biometrics appointment and you take it back with you immediately afterward. As long as your visa extension was submitted before your current visa expired, you will not incur any overstay fees.

Immigration counts the submission date, not the approval date. So even if your extension is still being processed when your original visa expires, you are legally covered.

Yes. For the visa extension, your passport does not stay at Immigration.

The extension is processed online, and you only need to bring your passport to the appointment for photo and fingerprints.
