Streamline Your Travel: Apply and Pay for eVoA in Advance Without Intermediaries

The Indonesian Immigration Service has introduced a new option for travelers: you can now apply for and pay for an electronic Visa on Arrival (eVoA) in advance of your arrival to Indonesia without needing assistance from intermediaries.

This streamlined process aims to significantly expedite border control procedures upon arrival.

The service is available for citizens of 87 countries.

The visa costs $32 (500,000 Indonesian Rupiah), and a small fee may be charged for card payments.

- Your passport must be valid for at least six months from the date of arrival.

- Your passport must have at least one blank page.

- You must enter Indonesia using the same passport on which the visa was issued.
