What do we need before traveling to Bali ?

Latest Travel Regulations for Bali

The Indonesian government has established travel regulations to ensure a smooth and hassle-free experience for visitors. Travelers arriving in Bali must comply with standard entry requirements, including passport validity, visa regulations, and proof of onward travel if required.

For domestic travelers, there are no special entry restrictions, but it is advisable to check with your airline for any specific travel guidelines. International visitors should ensure they meet Indonesia’s visa requirements, whether opting for a Visa on Arrival (VOA) or applying in advance if necessary.

While there are no additional health-related entry requirements, having travel insurance is highly recommended. Always stay informed by checking official sources such as the Indonesian immigration website or the Ministry of Tourism for the latest updates on travel regulations.

Immigration

Regardless what country you are from and what visa you will be getting there are a few things every foreign visitor needs before travelling to Indonesia.

  • A passport that is valid for at least 6 months from the day you enter Indonesia.
  • A passport that has at least one complete blank page.
  • Proof of a return flight or onward flight out of Indonesia.

If the immigration officer has a suspicion that you may abuse the free visa you might also be asked for proof of sufficient funds to stay in Indonesia for the duration of your visa.

The Indonesia Visa is counted per day, not per night. Your first day and last day are included in the 30 day calculation. Even if you enter Indonesia at 23:55h (11:55pm), the last 5 minutes before midnight will still be considered a full day. The same for your departure.
