Indonesia e-VOA and Bali Tourist Levy Guide: Official Fees, Forms, and Arrival Checklist

If you are traveling to Indonesia—especially to Bali—in 2026, understanding the country's dual fee system and digital declarations is crucial for a smooth arrival. To avoid long queues and third-party scams, you should handle all travel documents online prior to your flight.

TL;DR: Apply for Indonesia e-VOA only on evisa.imigrasi.go.id (IDR 500,000, 30 days, extendable once). Pay the Bali Tourist Levy on lovebali.baliprov.go.id (IDR 150,000) and complete the free All Indonesia arrival declaration on allindonesia.imigrasi.go.id.

Here is the official guide to the Indonesia e-VOA, the Bali Tourist Levy, and customs declarations.

Direct Answer: Essential Documents for Indonesia & Bali Entry

1. The Indonesia Electronic Visa on Arrival (e-VOA)

Most foreign tourists (including citizens from the US, UK, Australia, China, India, and EU countries) are required to obtain a Visa on Arrival (VOA) to enter Indonesia.

While you can pay for a VOA at the airport, it is highly recommended to apply online for an e-VOA beforehand:

• Automated e-Gates: Having an e-VOA may make you eligible to use automated biometric gates at Jakarta (CGK) or Bali (DPS), depending on passport type, visa type, airport operations, and immigration instructions on arrival.
• Extensions: If you decide to stay longer, the e-VOA can be extended online for an additional 30 days via the same portal, saving you a trip to a physical immigration office.

2. The Bali Tourist Levy

If your itinerary includes Bali, you must pay the provincial Bali Tourist Levy. This fee is mandatory for all international tourists entering Bali, regardless of your visa type (even if you enter visa-free from an ASEAN nation).

• Payment Timing: You are strongly encouraged to pay the IDR 150,000 levy before your arrival.
• QR Voucher: Once paid via the Love Bali portal, you will receive a QR code voucher via email. Keep this QR code saved on your phone, as it will be scanned at checkpoint terminals upon entering Bali.

3. All Indonesia / Customs Declaration (e-CD)

Travelers entering Indonesia should complete the applicable arrival and customs declaration through the official unified portal. You can fill it out before arrival at allindonesia.imigrasi.go.id. Upon completion, you will receive a QR code that customs officers will scan at the exit.

Double-Checking Your Entry Details

Official portals require entering exact passport data, and spelling errors can lead to processing delays, e-VOA rejection, or issues at the border gate.

Before submitting your electronic customs declaration or e-VOA, carefully review your passport number, name, and passport expiration date to ensure they are typed exactly as shown on your physical passport.

On supported Indonesia eVisa pages and All Indonesia arrival forms, the eVisaFlow Chrome extension can help enter saved passport, trip, accommodation, and contact information. The Bali Tourist Levy is separate, so pay it only on the official Love Bali channel.

Basic Entry Checklist:

1. Passport valid for at least 6 months with 2 blank pages.
2. e-VOA approval PDF (printed or saved).
3. Love Bali Tourist Levy QR code voucher.
4. All Indonesia / Customs Declaration QR code.
5. A return or onward ticket.
