Indonesia Visa

Yes, Indian passport holders need a visa to enter Indonesia for tourism purposes, to visit family and friends, to attend meetings, incentives, conventions, and exhibitions as an attendee and to transit in Indonesia to other countries.

Since Indonesia does not offer visa-free entry to Indians, you can easily apply for an eVOA before entering the country, offering a more convenient way.

No, once your Indonesia visa application has been submitted, you cannot edit or correct any information. The system does not allow changes after submission to maintain the integrity of the application process. 

Note: The visa application fee is also non-refundable in such cases; if you discover an error or need to update your application, you will have to submit a new application and pay the visa fee again.

Yes, you can apply for an Indonesia e-visa from any location as long as you have access to the internet and the required documents. The entire application process is conducted online, making it convenient for travellers who are already abroad.

Recommendation: Make sure your current travel plans align with the visa’s validity period, and apply for the e-visa when you are certain of your travel dates to Indonesia.

Entering Indonesia before the start date specified on your e-visa is not permitted. The e-visa becomes valid only from the date mentioned on it, and attempting to enter the country before this date can result in a denial of entry by immigration authorities.

Tip: Plan your travel to coincide with the visa’s validity period, ensuring that you arrive on or after the start date specified on the visa.

Yes, if you are already in Indonesia on an extended visa and need to stay longer, you can apply for a further extension through the official channels. 

To apply for a further extension, you will need to visit an Indonesian immigration office and submit the required documentation, including your current visa and any supporting documents that justify the need for an additional stay.

Note: Extensions are granted at the discretion of immigration officials, and approval is not guaranteed. It’s important to apply for an extension well before your current visa expires.

Yes, the Indonesia e-visa can be used for short-term business trips, including participation in MICE (Meetings, Incentives, Conferences, and Exhibitions) events. It allows you to conduct business activities while adhering to Indonesian visa regulations. However, it is not valid for long-term employment or taking up a job in Indonesia.

If you plan to work or engage in long-term business activities, you will need to apply for a different visa type, such as a work visa or a business visa with extended validity.

Recommendation: Clearly state the purpose of your visit when applying for the e-visa to ensure it aligns with your intended activities in Indonesia.

Yes, with a single Indonesia or Bali e-visa, you can travel to multiple destinations within the country. The e-visa allows you to explore various regions of Indonesia, including popular tourist destinations like Bali, Jakarta, Yogyakarta, and the islands of Sumatra and Sulawesi.

Tip: Plan your itinerary to make the most of your time in Indonesia, taking advantage of the diverse experiences the country has to offer. Also, ensure that your travel plans fit within the visa's validity period and the allowed length of stay.

If you lose your Indonesia e-visa before travelling, you should immediately access your email or Atlys my profile dashboard where your visa was issued to re-download and print a copy of the e-visa. It is important to have a printed copy with you when you arrive in Indonesia.

In case you cannot retrieve the e-visa, contact the Atlys customer support team.

Recommendation: Having both a digital and printed copy of your e-visa is a good practice to avoid issues if one copy is lost or damaged. Hence, always keep multiple copies of your e-visa in different locations (e.g., on your phone, printed in your luggage) to prevent any travel disruptions.
