Citizens of some countries can get to Bali by buying a ticket and boarding a plane. And, yes, you do need to be fully vaccinated if you’re over 18.
We discussed all visa issues with Marina
Visa Agency by Flado Indonesia:
Hello. Visa on arrival to Bali is available starting from April 6, 2022. It is necessary to have a certificate of full vaccination, insurance from $ 25,000, a ticket from Indonesia within the first 30 days, because extension in this case is not counted. After extending your visa, you must leave the country. You can, for example, fly for one day to Kuala Lumpur and then return.
Marina:
Is the visa on arrival $35?
Visa Agency by Flado Indonesia:
Right. This is 500.000 IDR ~ 35 USD. Pay this amount at the airport in cash or by card.
By the way, in our agency you can pre-arrange an electronic visa on arrival (e-VOA). You will skip the queue at the airport and get an online extension without visiting the immigration office.
Marina:
Is insurance required? Where do you recommend to do it?
Visa Agency by Flado Indonesia:
You can choose your own travel policy for the dates you need.
Marina:
What do I need to do to extend my visa on arrival for a month?
Visa Agency by Flado Indonesia:
As soon as you arrive, bring your passport to our office, 800.000 IDR for extension (~55 USD). It’s better to start right away. The regular visa extension lasts 1-2 weeks. Speed up process – 2-3 working days for 1.400.000 IDR.
Marina:
My actions:
1) take out insurance;
3) take a ticket from Indonesia a few days before the end of the month;
4) pay $35 at the airport;
5) a few days after arrival, come to your office with a passport;
6) on the 59th-60th day, fly out of the country for 1-2 days;
7) upon arrival (when I arrive for the second time) is the procedure the same?
Visa Agency by Flado Indonesia:
Right.
Marina:
A few days after arrival, is it better to immediately go to you with a passport and money?
What’s next? Do I need to make an appointment in advance?
Visa Agency by Flado Indonesia:
There is no need to make appointment, as soon as we receive an invitation from immigration to take biometrics, we will inform you, a letter will be sent to your email. After giving the fingerprints in a week and a half, your passport will be returned to us and you can pick it up.
P.S. If you buy an e-VOA, you do not need to visit the immigration office during the extension process. Submit your e-VOA application to our form.
Marina:
Thanks for answers. All clear. 🙏🏻
Marina:
One more question. Is it possible to issue another visa and travel longer?
Visa Agency by Flado Indonesia:
In this case, there is a tourist visa with index B211A. It must be obtained in advance. Usually the issue takes 5-10 business days, but it can take 4. This visa is already for 180 days with all extensions and after that you can get a new long visa without leaving Bali.
Marina:
Interesting. Perhaps I will alternate between visa on arrival and B211A in the future. Thank you again.
