Visa to Bali, Indonesia

GATEWAY TO BALI: YOUR VISA GUIDE

Planning a trip to Bali, Indonesia?

Navigating through visa requirements can be tricky, as they vary based on your nationality, the purpose of your visit, and the duration you plan to stay.

By clarifying these aspects, selecting the appropriate visa for your Bali adventure becomes much simpler.

Bali offers a variety of visa options to suit the needs of its visitors. For short trips, the Visa Exemption Arrangement (VEA) allows travelers from certain countries to enjoy up to 30 days in Bali without a visa.

If you’re not eligible for the VEA, the Visa on Arrival (VOA) could be your next best option, allowing a 30-day stay that can be extended for another 30 days, giving you up to 60 days in this paradise.

The Electronic Visa on Arrival (e-VOA) is available for those looking to bypass queues, enabling travelers to apply for their Bali visa online before departure.

Visitors with different travel motives can opt for the Tourist Visa, permitting a 60-day stay extendable twice, offering up to 180 days in Bali.

For those seeking repeated journeys to Bali, the “Tourism Multiple Entry Visa” facilitates multiple visits over 1, 2, or 5 years, with each stay lasting up to 60 days, simplifying the process for frequent travelers.

Understanding Bali’s visa options and requirements is key to planning a hassle-free trip, whether you’re visiting for leisure or other purposes. Get ready to dive into all that Bali has to offer!
