This kind of Visa is only intended for tourists who are visiting Indonesia, and NOT for expatriates intending to work and live for an extended period of time. These visas will be needed by friends or family coming to visit you during your stay in Indonesia.
You can obtain a 7-day Visa on arrival or a 30-day. For both of them, the requirements are the same:
- Payment to purchase the Visa on Arrival which is US$25 for the 30-day visa and US$10 for the 7-day visa, must be in cash (no credit card)
- Onward ticket or return ticket must be shown on arrival
- Passport that is valid for at least 6 months from the date of entry
Tourists that are entering Indonesia with a visa-on-arrival facility must go to a special counter to have their passport stamped with an on-arrival visa before going to the immigration desk. The visa application will take 15-30 minutes depending on how many people are applying. Payment counters, a bank counter, and a money changer have been set up to process payments.
Please note that visa on arrival is not extendable. If you would like to stay longer than 30 days in Indonesia, you will have to exit and reenter the country using a new visa (either tourist, Sosial Budaya or business or others).
There are only 11 countries that do not have to get a visa on arrival when they enter Indonesia. These countries can simply walk through the immigration without charge. The nationalities of the below countries are visa free and are allowed to stay in Indonesia for a maximum of 30 days fully visa-free. However, this kind of visa is not extendable. The countries are:
Thailand, Malaysia, Singapore, Brunei Darussalam, Philippines, Hong Kong SAR, Macau SAR, Chile, Morocco, Peru and Vietnam.
Visa on Arrival
Update:
As per 26 Jan 2010, foreign tourists visiting Indonesia can now extend their visas-on-arrival for another 30 days, as of 26 January 2010, the Indonesian immigration office announced Monday. Prior to this, foreign tourists were not allowed to extend their visas-on-arrival. They had to leave the country to get a new visa.
In the new ruling, the immigration office has decided to scrap the seven-day visa-on-arrival. The office will now only issue visas for a 30-day stay at the rate of US$25, extendable for another 30 days.

my wife stays in pakistan.
I work in Qatar and have work visa for Qatar , she dont.
@Sal, your wife must apply for a tourist visa from the Indonesian embassy in Pakistan.
@Jateen, Indians are eligible for VOA, just bring your passport with at least 6 months validity left, and return ticket. Charge is USD 25 for 30 days visa as explained above.
@Arif Hanafi, as per above post, Pakistani nationals are NOT eligible for visa on arrival – please apply for visa at the nearest Indonesian embassy.
apakah warga negara dimana dinegaranya belum ada kedutaan Indonesia boleh datang dengan visa on arrival seperti contohnya azerbaijan
Hi! Can you get visa upon arrival at Yogyakarta airport? I did not find information of which are the approved “international gateways” anywhere… Thanks
I am working in Jeddah Saudi arabia in an Airline. I try to apply for indinesian visit visa in jeddah consulate. But they did not accept my passport because i am pakistani.
Which looks very strange to me.
They told me because of your nationality you have to submit your case in ministry of foriegn affair in jakarta to get visa and also
You must have some one there to sponsor you.
I ask from him if I do’nt have some one there then he replied I am sorry.
Regards
Hi,

Do we require any hotel confirmation to be eligible to get Visa on arrival? I do have a long validity on my passport and if i book return tickets is that all done? Do they require any finance proofs or accommodation confirmations to give visa on arrival? I am wishing to live at my friends home and he will take me around in Indonesia.

I am new zealander and arriving Bali but my passport only will have 5 and half months left on it. Will I be refused entry. Usually get visa on arrival
Hi Chris, it’s safest to renew your passport first. Sometimes they’ll cut you some slack since it’s only half a month less than required, but sometimes they’re firm (and won’t even budge with a bribe).
I am romanian and i;m arriving Surabaya but i must change the planes in Jakarta and i will stay there only 2 hour 25 minutes before next flight. From where do i have to get the visa? And am i required a specific sum of money or a hotel reservations? Because i will stay home at my boyfriend. It is very important for me to know pls.
Terima kasih.
Nicky, it will depend on whether you have to exit the gates to change planes or not. If you have to exit which means you will be passing through immigration and claiming your luggage first before going on the next plane, then you have to take your visa on arrival at Jakarta airport. However if you will only transit within the airport, you can take the visa on arrival at the airport in Surabaya. The best thing to do is consult the transit/ground staff once you disembark the plane.
As for the hotel reservation, I’m confident that you can just bring the address and phone number of your boyfriend to list as accomodation.
I will take only hand luggage with me. But does it matter how much money i have on me because i wont have too many coz the ticket was kinda expensive so when i get there after i make the visa my boyfriend will support me with money so will they stop me because i need to have a certain amount of cash?:-s I’m lil worried because its the first time i travel by plane and its very far away.
Thank you very much for your previous answer
I don’t think they will ask you to show how much money you have especially if you can show them an onward or return ticket to show you will not stay in Indonesia beyond the granted visa. But it would certainly help if you can show a credit or debit card just to be safe.

Hi. I’m a British Citizen currently in Jakarta. I arrived in November and have renewed my visa twice already by exiting the country and then re-entering (So I have 3 visas in my passport).
What I want to know is, is there a maximum amount of times I can do this? My initial plan was to stay here until November by exiting the country every month.
Hi Carl. Unfortunately we have no info as to how many times you are allowed to take a visa on arrival. If your purpose of visit is anything else but tourism you should seriously consider other types of visas. Browse here for more information: http://expat.or.id/info/docs.html
I’m an American citizen. I was wondering if it’s common at all to be denied visas-on-arrival if you already meet the requirements for it. I plan on arriving in Jakarta in the middle of March and would be devastated if I am denied it and can’t enter.
Brian, I have never heard of such incident, but that’s not a guarantee, obviously. Good luck, hope for the best.
