Border systems for every visitor

No ETA. Most Western and Asian passports need a VOA/e-VOA (IDR 500,000); ASEAN, Hong Kong, Brazil and Turkey passports (among ours) are visa-free for 30 days, not extendable. All arrivals complete All Indonesia; Bali arrivals also pay the Bali tourist levy.

Onward ticket

Proof of onward or return travel required to obtain any visa including the VOA/e-VOA (FCDO, Canada); Irish DFA warns one-way tickets on a short-stay visa will be denied entry.

Proof of funds

No fixed amount published for visitors; may be asked.

Travel insurance

Not required for VOA/visa-free tourist entry.

Vaccinations

Yellow fever certificate required if arriving from a yellow-fever-risk country; otherwise none required.

Cash to declare at customs

Cash of IDR 100,000,000 or more (or foreign-currency equivalent) must be declared; carrying more than IDR 100 million in rupiah needs Bank Indonesia approval.

Taxes, levies and fees

Bali tourist levy IDR 150,000 per foreign tourist per entry to Bali, in addition to visa fees, also charged when arriving in Bali from elsewhere in Indonesia; pay online in advance via the official Love Bali site/app or on arrival. Some visa holders are exempt but must declare the exemption before arrival (2-3 working days, Taiwan MOFA). Some international airfares may not include departure tax.

Medicines, vapes and banned items

Cannabis, CBD/THC products are illegal even with a prescription; amphetamine-based ADHD medicines (e.g. Adderall, Vyvanse) are illegal. Carry prescriptions in original packaging with a doctor's letter and declare medicines on All Indonesia; do not mail medicines. Drug trafficking can carry the death penalty. FCDO (Feb 2026) warns that possession of CBD oil can lead to arrest.

Travelling with children

No Indonesia-specific consent-letter rule found in the sources checked.
