All visitors must be in possession of a passport valid for at least six months and onward or return tickets.

Due to the current lack of diplomatic relations, citizens of Israel are not ordinarily allowed to visit Indonesia without special permission.

Citizens of the following nations are permitted free entry into Indonesia for a period of 30 days. However the free visa stamp must be obtained at immigration upon arrival, and is not extendable. For longer stays of up to 60 days, a visa should be obtained in advance from your nearest Indonesian embassy.

All other nationalities will need to apply for a visa in advance, obtainable from their nearest Indonesian embassy or consulate.

Overstaying a visa is permitted, subject to a fine accrued per day overstayed, but overstaying beyond 60 days is a very serious matter and likely to lead to imprisonment.

When staying in Indonesia, visitors are automatically registered with the police if staying in a hotel or resort. Visitors staying in private accommodation are required to register their presence in the area to the police themselves, and failure to do so could result in a serious fine.
