New Visa Free Countries to Indonesia
Indonesia continues to make international travel more convenient by expanding its Visa-Free Entry program. As part of its latest immigration policy, the Government of Indonesia has officially added six new countries and administrative regions to the list of destinations eligible for visa-free visits, making it easier for more travelers to experience the beauty and diversity of Indonesia.
Whether you’re planning a beach holiday in Bali, a cultural journey through Yogyakarta, or an adventure across Indonesia’s breathtaking islands, understanding the latest visa regulations is an essential first ste
Indonesia Adds Six New Visa-Free Countries
Under the latest regulation issued by the Indonesian Government, six additional countries and administrative regions are now eligible for Visa-Free Entry:
- Türkiye (Turkey)
- Brazil
- Peru
- Kazakhstan
- Macau Special Administrative Region (China)
- Belarus
This update is part of the government’s ongoing effort to strengthen tourism, encourage international travel, and support economic growth while maintaining immigration security. The regulation came into effect in July 2026
What Is Visa-Free Entry?
Visa-free entry allows eligible foreign nationals to enter Indonesia without applying for a visa before departure or upon arrival. Travelers who qualify can enter the country for the permitted purpose and duration set by the Indonesian government.
Visa policies are determined by Indonesia’s immigration authorities and may change over time. Always check the latest requirements before booking your trip
Who Is Eligible for Visa-Free Entry?
Indonesia grants visa-free entry to citizens of selected countries. The list of eligible nationalities and the conditions of entry are subject to change based on government regulations.
Your eligibility depends on several factors, including
- Your nationality
- The purpose of your visit
- Your intended length of stay
- Current Indonesian immigration policies
If your country is not included in the visa-free program, you may still be eligible for a Visa on Arrival (VoA) or an Indonesian e-Visa, depending on your nationality.
Visa-Free Entry vs. Visa on Arrival
Many travelers confuse visa-free entry with a Visa on Arrival, but they are different.
Visa-Free Entry
- No visa application required (if eligible)
- Available only for certain nationalities
- Subject to the permitted length of stay and immigration regulations
Visa on Arrival (VoA)
- Available for many eligible nationalities
- Can be obtained upon arrival at designated Indonesian airports and seaports or applied for online in advance where available
- Subject to applicable government fees and regulations
Choosing the right option depends on your nationality and travel plans.
Documents You May Need
Even if you qualify for visa-free entry, immigration officers may ask you to present supporting documents, such as:
- A passport with sufficient validity
- A confirmed return or onward flight ticket
- Proof of accommodation
- Evidence of sufficient funds for your stay (if requested)
- Any additional documents required under current Indonesian immigration regulations
Having these documents ready can help ensure a smoother arrival process.
Visiting Bali
Bali is Indonesia’s most visited island and is served by Ngurah Rai International Airport, which welcomes travelers from around the world.
Whether you enter Bali using visa-free entry, a Visa on Arrival, or another visa type, make sure you understand the conditions that apply to your visit before you travel.
Why Check the Latest Visa Information?
Immigration rules can change due to new government policies, international agreements, or other regulatory updates.
Before traveling, it is always recommended to verify:
- Whether your nationality qualifies for visa-free entry
- Whether you need a Visa on Arrival or another visa
- The maximum permitted stay
- Passport validity requirements
- Any additional entry requirements that may apply
Checking the latest information before departure can help you avoid unexpected delays or travel disruptions.
