Indonesia overhauled its entry system for 2026 — a centralised e-visa platform, a mandatory pre-arrival app registration, the One Person One Visa rule, and Bali's standing tourism levy. For travel agents, the headline is that clients can no longer simply turn up and pay: several steps now happen before departure. This guide explains the 2026 framework and what to brief clients. Visa rules change frequently and vary by nationality; always verify the current position on Indonesia's official immigration channels before travel.
Visto na chegada e e-VOA: o produto principal
Most leisure visitors enter Indonesia on a 30-day Visa on Arrival (VoA) or its electronic equivalent, the e-VOA. Citizens of roughly 97 countries are eligible, and the permit can be extended once for a further 30 days at an immigration office. The e-VOA is completed online before departure, which shortens the airport process and is now the recommended route — agents should steer clients to complete it in advance rather than queue for VoA on arrival. A smaller set of nations, principally fellow ASEAN members, enjoy visa-free entry for short stays. The practical rule for agents: confirm the client's nationality against the current eligibility list before quoting, because the category determines the pre-travel steps.
As mudanças de 2026: o app All Indonesia e One Person One Visa
The substantive 2026 reform is procedural. Indonesia has moved to a centralised e-visa platform and introduced mandatory pre-arrival registration through the All Indonesia app, alongside a One Person One Visa policy that links each application to biometric records for stricter compliance. In practice, this means clients should complete both the e-VOA and the app registration ahead of travel — the guidance is to do so around 48 hours before departure — and carry the confirmations. Missing either step can lead to long queues, additional fees or, at worst, refusal at the desk. This is exactly the kind of pre-departure documentation that a ground operator briefs into every file, as we do across the Indonesia DMC portfolio.
A taxa turística de Bali
Bali applies its own charge on top of any visa. Since early 2024, most international visitors arriving in Bali pay a tourism levy of 150,000 rupiah per person, payable online (via the official Love Bali platform) or on arrival. It is separate from the visa and applies regardless of visa type. Agents building Bali tour packages should either include the levy in the quote or flag it clearly as a payable-on-arrival item, so clients are not surprised. The levy funds cultural and environmental programmes on the island and is a fixed part of the Bali arrival process now.
Passaporte, documentação e o essencial para informar o cliente
The standard entry requirements still apply and are worth building into every file: a passport valid for at least six months beyond arrival with at least two blank pages, proof of onward or return travel, and evidence of accommodation. For longer stays, business travel, or the digital-nomad and second-home segments, different visa classes apply and should be handled as specialist cases rather than squeezed into a VoA. The safe operating posture for agents is a short pre-travel checklist attached to every Indonesia file — e-VOA, All Indonesia app, Bali levy, passport validity — which is precisely what our ground team supplies, from Bali to Yogyakarta.
