In 2026, entry rules for Indonesia have become highly tech-oriented. Travelers no longer need to wait in line for physical visa stickers or visit immigration offices just to file an extension application. All processes now begin online through the e-VOA (B1) system.
What is e-VOA (B1) and who is it for?
The Electronic Visa on Arrival (e-VOA) is a digital document that allows citizens of 97 countries (including Australia, the USA, UK, and most European nations) to fly to Indonesia for tourism, business meetings, or transit.
Key Advantages in 2026:
- Speed: Processing takes anywhere from a few hours to 2 days.
- Auto Gates: You can pass through automated border control terminals at the airport in just 30 seconds.
- Duration: The visa is issued for 30 days and allows for a legal 30-day extension.
Instructions: How to Get Your Visa and Stay for 2 Months
Step 1: Offshore Application (Before Departure)
To apply via the Flado Indonesia portal, you only need two documents: a passport photo and a selfie. Once approved, the visa file will be sent to your email.
Step 2: Border Clearance via Auto Gates
Head straight to the automated terminals (Auto Gates). Scan your passport, look into the camera—and in 30 seconds, you are in Indonesia. This eliminates the need to wait for an officer or pay cash at the airport.
Step 3: Onshore Extension (While in Bali)
To stay for 2 months (60 days), the visa must be extended. If you processed your e-VOA through our portal, the extension filing is done entirely online.
Important: We recommend applying for an extension at least 14 days before your first month expires. Although the application is filed online, current immigration rules still require a one-time visit to the office for biometrics (photo and fingerprints). We fully coordinate this process and notify you of your exact appointment time.
Important Payment Details
Official government portals often encounter issues with international bank cards or specific regional restrictions. On the Flado Indonesia portal, you can pay for the service using any convenient method, including international credit cards and alternative payment systems.
