🇮🇩 Entry Requirements To Indonesia: Do We Need A Visa To Enter?
Travellers from ASEAN countries (Singaporeans included) entering Indonesia will no longer require a Visa on Arrival (VoA), and can instead enter via the special visa-free process! However, do note that (as of now) if you are coming in as a visa-free ASEAN tourist, you will be limited to a 30-day stay which cannot be extended.
🚨 For other international travellers coming in through the VoA program, do note that you will only be able to apply for the VOA for Tourism at immigration control after arriving at the airport. This cannot be applied in advance. You’ll also need to pay Rp500,000 (~S$48.10) by cash or credit card.
Here’s what you need to present to the counter when applying:
✅ Passport with at least 6 months’ validity
✅ Return ticket to Singapore
✅ COVID-19 related documents:
👉🏻 Proof of vaccination in English verified by the Ministry of Health of the Republic of Indonesia. Here’s how.
👉🏻 Proof of negative PCR test results taken within 48 hours before departure
👉🏻 Proof of travel insurance which includes financing for handling COVID-19 and medical evacuation to a referral hospital with a minimum coverage of US$25,000
