אינדונזיה: מה לדעת לפני הנסיעה
העיקר
- Most visitors need a Visa on Arrival (IDR 500,000, 30 days, extendable once by 30 days) — buy it online in advance as an e-VOA at evisa.imigrasi.go.id.
- Submit the free All Indonesia arrival card (immigration, customs and health in one) within 3 days before arrival; it replaced the paper customs form and SATUSEHAT pass.
- Bali charges a tourist levy of IDR 150,000 per person per entry; pay via the official Love Bali site or on arrival.
- Drug offences carry the death penalty; never carry anything for others.
- Beware of fake visa/arrival-card websites charging inflated fees.
כניסה ואשרות
ASEAN citizens enter visa-free; nationals of about 97 countries (including Russia, the US, UK, all EU states, China, India, Turkey, UAE, Kazakhstan, Uzbekistan, Ukraine, Belarus) get a 30-day Visa on Arrival, extendable once for 30 days, or an e-VOA purchased online beforehand. Air and sea arrivals use All Indonesia; land arrivals use the customs ECD route. Bali visitors also pay the Bali tourist levy.
